ANNUALS 
Flowers That Bloom the First Year From Seed 
The best of success with many annuals may be had by scwing them in beds where they are to flower. The hardier 
varieties such as Calendula, Larkspur, Centaurea and Poppy may be sown very early, while the more tender, as Bal- 
sam, Nasturtium, Marigold and Zinnia, are best planted later when the ground has become warm. Prepare the soil 
carefully, making it soft and fine, and sow the seed broadcast or in rews. When large enough, thin the seedlings so that 
they stand about half as far apart as their maximum height If a hotbed or coldframe is available many kinds may be 
started earlier and transplanted, hastening the blooming period. Perennials listed on page 38.
