BURPEE'S PERENNIAL FLOWER SEEDS — 
Perennial Flowers are the hardy, permanent ones that live for years. In frost-free sections, seeds 
may be sown at almost any time of the year; in mi 
severe, seeds may be sown in the fall—the earlier t 
freezing weather sets in. After the ground is frozen 
or strawy manure to prevent the plants from bein 
ld climates or in localities where winters are not too” 
he better—so that plants will be of good size before 
hard, cover the bed with a light mulch of straw 
g heaved out by alternate freezings and thawings. 
Cultural directions are given on every bag containing the seeds. The Burpee leaflet, ‘‘L-26, Perennials 
from Seed,” sent Free upon request. Heights and blooming season given in the descriptions are average; 
they may vary in different localities and under different weather and soil conditions.
