WOODGRO 
FLOWER SEEDS 
The bright blooming Annuals are the quickest 
and easiest of all flowers to raise. As their name 
indicates, they pass their entire existence within the 
compass of one year, The seed which you sow now 
germinates in a few days, produces plants which 
come into bloom, bear seed, and die before the ap- 
proach of winter. Because of their short period of 
growth and their showy brilliance, they are ex- 
tremely useful as fillers in gardens of bulbs, shrubs, 
or perennials, and also excellent for cutting. 

Some Annuals are so hardy that their seed lives 
in the ground over winter and comes up year after 
year, so that they seem to be really perennials. The 
seed of other Annuals is tender and will not live 
outdoors over winter. These must be sown indoors 
early in spring and the little plants transferred to 
the open ground when the weather is warm. 
Practically all Annuals will bloom the first year if 
sown outdoors after the winter is settled, but some 
of them come into bloom a little late and so are bet- 
ter started in coldframes, hotbeds, or boxes indoors. 
Almost all Annuals like rich soil, plenty of water, 
and bright sunshine. Dwarf varieties should be 
thinned to stand about 4 inches apart; taller varie- 
ties from 6 to 18 inches. Exceptional plants, like 
Cosmos, may require even more space. 
Thorough cultivation while the plants are young 
and copious watering in dry weather will insure 
success.
