Annuals are those which attain full growth, bloom, and die the 
same year, and are raised from seed exclusively. 
Biennials attain full growth, bloom and die the second year from 
the planting of seed. 
Perennials produce plants the first year, which, with a few excep¬ 
tion, do not flower until second year from planting of seed, after 
which they bloom every year and last for several years. 
The letter “A” following variety indicates Annuals; “B,” the 
Biennials; “P,” the Perennials; "P. A.,” those Perennials which 
can be treated as Annuals.
