Seeds of Annual and Perennial Flowers 
Our list of Flower Seeds does not cover every variety, but it does describe the best kinds for garden planting. We believe that 
a carefully selected list like this is what the amateur gardener wants. Our seed is the best that can be grown, carefully tested 
for quality, and with ordinary care will give splendid results. It is of the same high quality we sell the particular florists for green¬ 
house and outside planting. Annuals are those kinds that you must plant each season. Perennials are hardy and last for years.
