YOUR YARD 
May Be Trans¬ 
formed into a Beautiful Garden 
by a Proper Planting of Flowers 
Condon’s Sure Bloom 
Flower Seeds-* All Postpaid 
Foreword Surely there is nothing more beautiful in this world than flowers! A 
garden of flowers around the house makes it a real home. Nothing can 
take the place of a flower-garden. For the sake of little children, and for all that is good 
in the world, surround your home with the refining and uplifting influence of flowers. The 
most beautiful flowers imaginable may be grown successfully from our “Sure Crop” Seed 
if cultural directions which are printed on all packages are carefully followed. Flower Seeds 
come in several classifications and should be planted as follows : 
Hardy Annuals. Seed may be sown in the open 
ground in early spring. The plants will flower and 
die in the one season. 
Tender, or Half Hardy Annuals. Seeds should be 
sown in boxes in the house or in hot-beds during 
March or April and the plants set out in the open 
ground in May. They will flower for the one season 
and die. 
Hardy Biennials. Sow seed as you would the 
hardy annual. The plants will not bloom until the 
following year, after which they die. 
Tender, or Half Hardy Biennials. Seed should be 
sown as you would the half hardy annuals. The 
plants require protection during the winter. They 
will bloom and die the following season. 
Hardy Perennials. Seeds may be sown in early 
spring, or during July and August to produce plants 
that will flower the next season, and continue to 
bloom each succeeding year. Seed of some hardy 
perennials if sown very early will produce plants 
that will bloom the same season. It is unneces¬ 
sary to give protection to these plants during the 
winter, but it will prove beneficial to the plants 
if a covering of leaves, litter or strawy manure is 
provided. 
Half Hardy Perennials. Sow seed as you would 
the half hardy annuals. If plants are set out in the 
open ground they must be lifted before frost, potted 
up and taken in the house during the winter.
