Perennial Seeds for Rock Gardens 
A FASCINATING, distinct and interesting type of garden that can be made on 
comparatively small piece of ground, making a display far greater in effect 
than any other kind of gardening. Preparations for a Rock Garden must be made 
ahead, if Perennials are used, as they do not bloom the first year. Seeds should be 
planted on the rock garden where they are to grow, early in the Spring and up to 
July 15th. Directions for making a Rock Garden see page 120. 
We offer below a special list of seeds that will thrive between crevices of stones. 
You will enjoy your rock garden all the more if you raise your own plants from seed.
