Perennial flowers are the hardy, permanent ones that live for years. Plants grow to the flowering stage each 
year and die down again to the roots, which remain alive but dormant until the next season. Some perennials 
will flower the first year [rom seed if it is sown early, although two seasons are usually required before the plants 
sae produce their blooms. Sow seeds early so that you will have stronger plants 
to go through the winter and give more bloom the next spring and summer. 
Cultural directions are given on every, bag. With the perennials we have 
included the best of the biennials, seed of which is sown one year, the plants 
blooming the second season, after which they die.
