C’osmos 
The seeds of some annuals may be sown as early as February in the open jjarden; others must wait until the earth has become 
warm and friable. All of them will bloom the first year and complete their cycle. Noteworthy among those whose seed may be scattered 
in early spring are Annual Poppies, Cornflower, Petunia, Larkspur, Nicotiana, Nigella, Snapdragon and Cosmos. 
As soon as the ground can be prepared, plant Sweet Peas. 
Some of the tender, late-blooming annuals can be brought into flower e;irlier by sowing the seed under glass or in boxes indoors. 
In this group are found: Asters, Scarlet Sage
