Hardy Perennial Flower Seeds 
Hardy perennials appeal mostly to people who have not 
the time to bother with plants that have to be reset every 
Spring. Hardy plants will increase in beauty each year. 
Most all perennial seeds planted in the Spring bloom the 
following year. Seeds planted in August will give excellent 
results and will bloom the next season.
