"CUT FLOWER" collection 
Sixteen Packets of New and Improved Annual 
Flower Seeds 
Shown in Colors on Page 77 
Many occasions arise when it is desirable to go into the garden 
and gather huge armfuls of choice cut-flowers. 
Flowers purchased in a store can never be as interesting as a 
bouquet cut fresh from your own garden. The Helichrysums or 
Everlasting Flowers included in this collection may be dried, and 
will remain bright and attractive for an entire year. These varieties 
are just as suitable for beds and borders.

Summer Flowering Collection of 
Annuals for the Rock Garden 
Unless annual flowers are used, the Rock Garden usually takes on a 
rather drab appearance during the summer months. In order to keep it 
bright and gay. we recommend planting the following group. These

may be started earlier indoors and the seedlings transplanted to the 
garden after the flowering of the early permanent material has completed 
its display.
