Brighten Up Your Home With 
Plant flowers for your table, flowers for your home, and flowers for your friends. You can never have too 
many flowers. An abundance of pretty bouquets can be had with so little work and so little expense that 
every home should have the cheering influence of flowers. The culture of many is so very simple that 
anyone can succeed. Flowers are divided into three classes: Annuals which produce flowers, mature, and 
die in one season. Biennials, which grow from seed one year and bloom and die the second year. Many 
of these will produce flowers the first year if sown early enough. Perennials, which live for several years 
producing flowers annually after the first season. These are grown from seed and also by setting out cut- 
tings, slips, or divisions of roots. Perennials are very satisfactory as they live for many years and pro- 
duce large quantities of very beautiful flowers. Culture Directions are given on the back of each packet. 
A general rule is to cover the seed to a depth of about four times the diameter of the seed. Barteldes 
Flower Seeds are assembled from all parts of the world and you will find in the following pages a very 
complete assortment of the very best varieties.
