AUTUMN SEED-SOWING 
Seeds of certain hardy perennials, and of many bulbs, shrubs 
and trees, seem to need a period of exposure to low soil tem- 
peratures in order to put them in shape to germinate. The best 
way to handle such seeds is to sow them in open ground seed- 
beds, or in cold-frame, in late autumn, October or November, but 
in regions with mild winters, or elsewhere whenever the ground 
thaws for a few days, the sowings may continue during Decem- 
ber, January and February with excellent results. Of course 
seeds of house plants may be sown any time of year, usually 
under. glass in a sunny window or greenhouse. We list at least 
1000 different kinds of seeds that may be sown to advantage 
- during the autumn months, either out of doors or under glass. 
See our GENERAL CATALOG. No. 55 for descriptions and 
offerings of them.
