Hardy perennials are easily raised from seeds; they may be sown either in Spring or 

 during the early Summer. The sir. lplest method is to sow them in a frame, protecting the 

 seedlings as they appear above ground from the sun. The soil should be kept evenly moist 

 but not saturated. Transplant the seedlings once or twice if necessary to prevent crowding.
