CHOICE FLOWER SEEDS. 
FOR FALL PLANTING 
For Garden, Parlor, Conservatory and Greenhouse 
Where the climate is not too severe, many hardy sorts of flower seeds succeed best if sown in the open border during 
August, September and October. Some hardy annuals, when sown late in the fall, so that the seeds will remain dormant 
in the ground during 
winter, will start earlier in the spring, thrive better and flower sooner than if sown in spring. 
Such hardy sorts as Columbine, Foxglove, Hollyhock, Sweet William, etc., that do not bloom until the second 
season, unless started very early in spring, are particularly recommended for fall planting. 
They should be sown early 
enough to make pretty good plants before very cold weather—say not later than the middle of September and where 
weather is at all severe the plants will need some slight protection. 
Then they will flower freely the next summer. 
South of central Ohio, fall sowings are particularly to be recommended both for the hardy and half hardy varie- 
ties and we have marked with a star (*) sorts which usually succeed in that section if conditions are at all favorable. 
The balance of the list are too tender for outdoor fall planting, but include many tender varieties which may be sown 
in ire or shallow wooden boxes of finely sifted soil, for winter and sprin 
and at trifling expense for bulbs and seeds, a world of pleasure can be ha 
blooming in the house. With a little care 
from a few flowers in the house in winter. 
Our Flower Seeds are all procured from the best sources in Burope and America and are of the very highest quality.

PANSIES 
If seed is sown outdoors in October the plants will bloom the following spring. Grown indoors they make 4 
good winter blooming pot plant. The largest and best flowers are produced by young plants which have been grown 
rather slowly in a partially shaded situation, and in very rich soil; coolness and moisture are necessary.
