INDEX AND GERMINATION TABLE 
TVTHEN sowing seeds it is always best to divide the packets and sow at diiierent times. Note the 
Ww time and give good care until the plants have had time to appear. Figures here indicate pages, 
and letters indicate, as per key, the time needed for germination. Do not condemn seeds until 
you have given them at least two or three trials. Those marked z will often lie dormant for a year or 
more. Seeds of Trees and Shrubs should be sown in a retired bed which will not be disturbed for two 
or three years. Some will start in a reasonable time and can be removed. Germination, however, is 
variable and more or less tardy.
