Our Flower Seeds are Fresh Each Year 
There are no more satisfactory flowers than those grown from seed, especially the easily grown brilliant flowering annuals. 
CULTTJllE: While some seeds need special treatment, the following general rules will apply to all. Make the 
surface of the soil as fine, smooth and level as possible; do not plant when the ^ound is wet; cover each lot of seeds 
to a uniform depth which should not be more than four times the diameter of the seed; press the soil firmly over the 
seed; plant in rS^ws so that the starting plants can be seen easily; thin out the young plants to prevent crowding and 
keep entirely free from weeds.___—_ 
CLASSES: 
Plants are usuallv divided into three classes: annuals, biennials and perennials. Annuals are plants which nor- 
manyTive but a single slasL. 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.
