“ALL FLOWER SEEDS ARE 
POSTPAID 
Flowers are classified as follows: An- 
nuals, seeds of which are sown in the 
spring and which will bear flowers the 
same year; Biennials, which produce plants 
only the first year, flowers the second year 
and must then be re-sown; Perennials, 
which produce plants the first year and 
bear flowers the second year and each year 
thereafter. A few biennials and perennials 
will flower the first year and hence are 
treated as annuals. Tender Perennials 
must be protected over winter, or brought 
indoors for winter blooming,
