 States or its possessions 



Early autumn is a favorite time with manj' gardeners to sow perennial flower seeds. To 

 hasten them along a cold frame or a similar temporary structure should be used. 



Those marked * give best results if the seed is sown late in the fall. They need the 

 action of frost to sprout freely during the coming spring. 



To help our customers in selecting varieties for the rock garden we have used the symbol 

 A to identify them at a glance. These varieties also are splendid for dwarf beds, borders, 

 or for edgings. Plants suited to semi-shade are marked (§), and those that will grow in 

 deeper shade 0. Practically all of these also do well in a sunny position.
