Annual Flower Seeds for Your Garden 
Summer and autumn gardens would be dull indeed were it not for the wide variety of annual flowers which we can all enjoy with 
little effort. Our gardens are becoming more important in our every-day lives as a place where we can spend Ieisure hours for re- 
Jaxation and we are naturally anxious to make them gay and bright. 
Most of the annuals are easy to grow. For early bloom, seed can be started in a hotbed or coldframe. However, many amateurs 
find it easy to sow seed directly in the open ground as soon as all danger of frost has passed. Since most annuals transplant easily, 
it is best to prepare a small area and use it as a seed-bed. As the plants develop in size, they can be set out in beds and borders. If 
you are planning a cutting garden, you will fmd it easiest to grow annuals in straight rows. This simple arrangement provides for 
easy and effective maintenance. 
Annuals can be used to brighten and lend mterest to your perennial and shrub plantings. They can be used in formal beds or in 
broad informal borders.
