HENDERSON'S Flower Seed Collections 



Choice Varieties — Profusion of Bloom — Easy Culture 



The collections offered on this and the opposite page contain many of 

 the choicest varieties of Henderson's Famous Flowers. For the heginner 

 in garden making, who is not familiar with varieties, no better means are 

 provided for the selection of a good representative assortment of garden 

 flowers than is furnished here. The experienced gardener knows that a 

 great saving both in time and money will be enjoyed by purchasing 

 these collections. 



Annual Flower Seeds complete the cycle of their existence in one year. 

 The seed is sown either directly in the open ground or indoors according 

 to the instructions printed on the packages. Therefore, if an immediate 

 display of flowers is desired, annuals should be grown. 



Perennial Flower Seeds produce flowering plants one year after 

 the seed is sown. This class is perfectly hardy and is used where a perma- 

 nent effect is desired in borders, foreground planting for hardy shrubs 

 and the like, as they bloom year after year.
