Borders for Spring Bulbs 
range of half-hardy annuals and biennials, such 
as Marigolds, French and African, in considerable 
variety ; Wallflowers, Stocks, Canterbury Bells, 
Sweet Williams, Pentstemons, Snapdragons, 
Hollyhocks, China Asters, and others. 
Borders for spring bulbs can conveniently 
be arranged with autumn-sown annuals. They 
are prettier if the plants are placed in successive 
stripes diagonally across the border. Some of 
the bulbs, Daffodils for instance, will remain in 
their places for two or three years ; Tulips or 
any others that have to be lifted can be taken 
up at the end of June when the best bloom of 
the annuals will be over. Seven feet is a con- 
venient width for such borders.
