They are easily 
raised from seed, 
being sowed in the 
ipring or early sum- 
mer. They should 
oe sown in seed beds 
i n d transplanted 
either once or twice, 
preferably twice. It 
is necessary to keep 
the seed beds pretty 
moist but not satur- 
ated and to protect 
the seedlings from 
the hot rays of the 
lun. Perennials will 
?ive you a great 
leal of satisfaction 
ind those who love 
flowers would rather 
grow them from 
seed than to buy 
the plants. How- 
ever, for the setting 
out of an entirely 
new garden we 
would recommend 
the use of plants so 
as to get a more 
rapid start the first 
year.
