Seeds of Annual and Perennial Flowers 
Our list of Flower Seeds does not cover every variety, but it does describe the best kinds for garden planting. We believe that 
a carefully selected list like this is what the amateur gardener wants. Our seed is the best that can be grown, carefully tested 
for quality, and with ordinary care will give splendid results. It is of the same high quality we sell the particular florists for green¬ 
house and outside planting. Annuals are those kinds that you must plant each season. Perennials are hardy and last for years.

are liberally designed to fill the needs of 
the average-sized garden. 
This year we offer in many varieties of 
flower seeds a “Special Package” which 
contains considerably more seed than 
the regular package, and has been 
planned for the larger suburban and 
estate gardens.

One of the finest of low-growing annual 
plants for beds and borders, as it is literally 
covered with bloom from early summer until 
frost. Unlike many other plants, the rain 
does not spoil the flowers, nor the sun fade 
out their color. Easily raised from seed, 
which is usually started in a window or hot¬ 
bed and transplanted outside in May. The 
seed can be sown outdoors in May.
