* If garden space is small, select only the names
marked with a star.
Note: For description of Sweet Peas, see page 356.
Our grandmothers loved also lady slippers, heliotrope,
mignonette; but the perennial flowers have taken the
place of many old-fashioned Annuals because they
require less care.
Among the most interesting Annuals are—
EVERLASTING FLOWERS
which may be dried and will keep their color for years.
They make charming winter decorations for the table.
There are several varieties.
Do not try all of the varieties named, but select from
the descriptions the one or two which would be most
pleasing to you.
