Plants of Annual Flowers 
For Flower Beds, Porch Boxes, etc. Including New Introductions of 1938, 1939, 1940 and 1941 
The varieties listed are suitable for transplanting, but those like Mignonette, Clarkia, Lupine, Nasturtium» 
Candytuft, and many others not listed here are best sown where wanted as they resent transplanting. For these 
we offer seeds. 
Young plants transplant most readily and give better results than older plants which are stem-hard and con- 
sequently become more or less stunted. We make successive sowings to have plants of proper age for transplanting. 
In planting annuals, masses of separate colors, thus giving contrast, is so much more effective than a hit or 
miss planting of many colors. 
Planting time of annuals usually begins about the middle of May, depending upon exposure, although some 
of the hardier varieties can be planted before this time and the most tender varieties should be set out after this 
time. 
Protection from frost is sometimes necessary. The short amount of time required to cover with newspapers 
is more than compensated for by the additional growth of the plants. 
In purchasing annuals, care should be taken to purchase young plants that are not woody and stem hard. 
Stem-hard plants never develop properly and always remain stunted. Purchasing directly from a reliable grower 
s the best guarantee for good results. 
Prices: 15c. per dozen for all varieties except as noted
