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
