SEEDS of PERENNIAL 
FLOWERS 
RAISING HARDY PERENNIALS FROM SEED 
Hardy perennials are easily grown from seed. In many cases they are 
a little slower than annuals, but with care they are successfully raised 
from seed with much less expense than buying the plants. Tender and 
half-hardy perennials are best sown in spring after frost is over. Hardy 
perennials are sown in the late summer and early fall for next year’s 

aE Tet flowers.
