Annuals have so many 
uses on the home grounds 
hat it is difficult to magine 
Pa flower garden without 
them. Started from seed 
early in the spring, either 
indoors or out, they bloom 
and die withm one growing 
season. They are indispens- 
able for quick effects, for 
filling in bare spots, for fol- 
lowing early spring bulbs, 
and for providing midsum- 
mer bloom By using an- 
nuals, the gardener can 
change the looks of his 
plantings from year to year. 
There is a wide variety in the 
e P height, growmg habit, and color 
ange of annuals. This makes them 
suitable for combining with many 
other plants such as perennials and 
shrubs. They give the garden a light, 
colorful look, and for a small outlay 
of time and expense furnish flowers 
for weeks.
