Perennial flower seeds may be planted through- 
out the summer but the very best time, we 
would say, is just the time when the particular 
plant in question naturally ripens its seed. 
Planting instructions on each packet. Keep this 
seed book. You may want to order some of these 
seeds for summer planting. See page 29 for 
perennial plants.
