“Lack of care does more damage than lack of knowledge. ”’—Poor Richard 
HERE is no deep secret about the successful growing of flowers. All that is needed is good seed, sufficiently 
rich soil, favorable weather and proper care. 
In the following pages are listed all of the most useful kinds of flowers, including those for every ordi- 
nary purpose. The list is conveniently arranged in alphabetical order. 
In connection with the description and illustration of the many flowers offered, we include such tried and 
proven suggestions for their culture as our seventy-one years of experience warrants. We also furnish cultural 
directions on each package of seed and you will find it of advantage to study them carefully. 
Plants are usually divided into three classes, Annuals, Biennials and Perennials. Annuals are plants 
which normally live but a single season. Biennials are plants living two years; particularly those which do 
not bear flowers and fruit until the second season. Perennials tend to live from year to year.
