HARDY ANNUALS may be sown from February till the end of 
September ; March, April, and May are the best months for general Summer 
display ; June and July for Autumn blooming; August and September for 
Spring dowering. Half-hardy Annuals— Sow from the beginning of March to 
the end of May ; place in a frame on a gentle bottom heat. When sowing from 
the middle of April to the end of May they may be easily raised without 
artificial heat, and by selecting a warm, sheltered situation, and covering 
them with a hand-light till they are strong enough to bear transplanting, 
BIENNIALS AND PERENNIALS — The most select and tender 
varieties for Summer and Autumn blooming maybe sown in a gentle heat in 
March and April, and pricked out into pots until fully established, and then 
potted off singly, or transplanted into the open ground, as required. The 
hardier varieties may be sown in the open ground, in prepared beds, in June 
and July, and when strong enough, transplanted to where they are intended 
to bloom the following year. 
HERBACEOUS PLANTS are those Perennials which lose their stems 
innuallr, whilst the roots continue alive in the ground.
