CULTURE OF FLOWER SEEDS. 



Provided the soil is in a proper state, flower seeds may be sown in the 

 open border in the months of April and May, or as soon as the soil becomes 

 dry and easily crumbled, after the spring frost has disappeared. They may 

 also be sown in preoared beds of light, rich soil, and transplanted into the 

 garden. The former is the more simple method but not not always as sat- 

 isfactory. The better plan is to sow all fine seeds under glass in a green- 

 house, hot-bed or in the house. As to the depth to which seed should be 

 covered, the best general rule is to cover fine seed very lightly, just enough 

 to protect them from the Sun; and in extremely dry weather a sprinkling 

 of damp moss is very uesful. With very fine seeds it is best to sow on the 

 surface, and press them lightly into the soil. We are convinced that one of 

 the most frequent causes of failure is in sowing the seed too deep, and 

 seedsmen are unjustly censured, when fault lies with the cultivator. 



ANNUALS attain full g'rowth from seed, flower and die in one year. 



BIENNIALS grow from seed one year, bloom and die the next, 

 though some varieties bloom the first season when sown early. 



PERENNIALS last for severel years, blooming' annually after the 

 first season, though some varieties will bloom the first season if 

 sown early. 



Explicit cultural directions are printed on 

 zeds. Ifith this help you are sure of success.
