SALZER’S FLOWER SEEDS 
ALL FLOWER -SEEDS ARE 
POSTPAID 
Flowers are classified as follows: 
Annuals, seeds of which are sown in 
the spring and which will bear flow- 
ers the same year; Biennials, which 
produce plants only the first year, 
flowers the second year and must then 
be re-sown; Perennials, which pro- 
duce plants the first year and bear 
flowers the second year and each year 
thereafter. A few biennials and per- 
ennials will flower the first year and 
hence are treated as annuals. ‘Tender 
Perennials must be protected over 
winter, or brought indoors for winter 
blooming.
