Flower Seeds 
Annuals 
Annuals are plants, that flower, seed and die with¬ 
in one year. Hardy Annuals will stand some frost. 
Half hardy Annuals will stand very little frost. 
Tender Annuals will not stand frost, and should be 
planted in boxes in protected places, ready to trans¬ 
plant in the open as soon as frost is past. 
Biennials 
Biennials are plants that flower during the season 
after planting, then seed and die. Biennials will stand 
some frost. They should be seeded in time to be 
transplanted out during good weather, to get well 
established before frost. 
Perennials 
Perennials are plants that flower the following 
season after planting and continue from year to year. 
In most cases, propagation may also be made by 
dividing the roots from full grown plants. There are 
Hardy Perennials, Half Hardy Perennials, and Ten¬ 
der Perennials. Seeds of most Perennials should be 
planted in late summer or early fall, so as to become 
well established plants before they are transplanted 
to permanent locations.
