In the following pages are listed all of the most useful 
kinds of flowers, including those for every ordinary 
purpose. The list is arranged in alphabetical order. 
Plants are usually divided into three classes: Annuals, 
Biennials, and Perennials. Annuals are plants which 
normally live but a single season. Biennials are plants 
living two years; particularly those which do not bear 
flowers and fruit until the second season. Perennials 
tend to live from year to year. 
It is well to include some of all three classes in plan¬ 
ning your flower garden. Most of the biennials and 
perennials bloom early in the season, while nearly all of 
the annuals continue to bloom until killing frosts. Com¬ 
bining the classes thus lengthens the season.
