Grow Perennfal Flowers From Seed
' 't ;" ' "-Phrto Courtesy Ferry-Morse Seed Oo. ;
. You can save considerable garden money and afld new zest to your
'gardening by growing your own perennial flowers from seed. . The best
'quality seeds- cost only a few cents a packet and with simple care will
produce scored of plants to bring color and beauty- to the garden for
-yean to come. ,Most perennials grown from seed bloom the second year
after sowing. : '- . - j ,,;',...'
Seed should' be started -at about
tha same tima as that of the an
nuals, such as zinnias nd mari
golds. "The secret of success la to
gt the seedlings to 'transplanting
also early enough so that when set
la their permanent places in garden
or border, they will get a good root
hold before cold weather comes on.
, jA specially prepared seed bed or
seed box is best for starting peren
nial seeds. A seed bed can be easily
prepared by knocking tho bottom
out of a good-sized shallow wooden
box and sinking the sides into the
ground. The - top should bo about
two or three inches above the sur
face. Use finely prepared, crumbly
garden loam containing plenty of
litmus. It is important to locate the
seed bed where it will be sheltered
from strong winds and from sunlight
during the hottest part of the day.
A seed box or flat may also be used,
with holes bored in the bottom for
drainage. This has the advantage
ot being movable to sheltered loca
tions when necessary. ,
Same perennial, seeds are very
small. Mix them with sand so that
they will not be sown too quickly
in the row and. merely press them
into the soil Instead .of covering
them. Larger seeds need a shallow
covering of soil. Firm the soil down
on them so that they will make im
mediate contact with the moisture
and plant food. Keep the soil moist
but not wet until the seeds sprout
Some gardeners spread damp burlap
over the surface to furnish needed
moisture, removing it at the first
sign of sprouting. ' -
Here are a number of perennials
that beginners can start from seed
with almost sure success: Colum
bine, gaillardia, coreopsis, hollyhock,
palnjed daisy, sweet william, hardy
pinks, hardy alyssum, and the violas.
: Perennial seeds usually take some
what longer to germinate than those
of annual flowers. Don't be discour
aged if the tiny sprouts do not show
themselves- for two or three weeks
after the seed is fown.
