Hardy Perennial Flower Seeds 
Perennials about the home grounds are a continual source of joy from early Spring to late Autumn, furnishing some of the 
most beautiful cuttings for house decoration. You can have the best perennials in a most generous measure by sowing the 
seed, at a slight cost compared with the cost of buying the plants and you will have the fascination of growing your own 
perennials. Seeds of perennials may be sown Indoors in boxes during February, March or April, or outside any time In summer 
In seed beds protected from hot sun and storms, and young plants, when 2 to 3 inches tall, set out where they are to flower. 
Out “Leaflet” tells you how to grow perennials from seed. It's free to customers.
