Sow in Fall All Flower Seed That Stand Freezing

Primulas P.ive It' st Itesulta 1 rum Kail Soaing. Many flowers, both annual and perennial, can be grown from seed sown in the fall. This method will produce annual flowers next summer earlier than any other, except sowing in a greenhouse or hot-bed. Perennials sown now will usually bloom late next iummer. The safest way for an amateur to sow either annuals or perennials in the fall, is in a seed box. This is the most convenient way also. Not even a cold frame is needed to protect the box ov er winter though it is a good thing to have. The seed box can be set in a protected corner of the house, covered with leaves, and left until spring. In a flat, the seeds will escape many of the winter hazards which seeds sown in the open garden will encounter. These hazards include drowning in surface water, washing away in heavy rains, or being uprooted by alternate thawing and freezing. Next to a flat, a raised bed surrounded by a wooden curb is a good place. Fill it with top foil and sow the seeds in rows, properly labeled so you can Identify the plants. A flat for fail sowing is prepared just as for spring sowing. Prepare a porous soil, mixing one-third peat moss, one-third sharp sand and one-third sifted top soil. Put half an inch of snhagnum moss on top of the soil, v the seed in this, and cover with spiuicouiu lightly.

Any of the hardy perennials may he sown in this way, at any lim.- before the freeze-up. Seeds will lie dormant until spring, and germinate long before you would be able to start a spring operation. Annuals which can be sown now are more limited in number. They must lie hardy, and should be varieties which selfsow in your locality and are easy to handle. These are likely to include Cosmos, cynoglossum, centaurcas, California poppies, snapdrag- ns, falliopsis, the fragrant t oh ha co. pansies, dianthus, candytuft, and petunias Annual larkspur and Shirley poppies are exceptionally good subjects, but ire usually sown direct in the garden, because they are not easily transplanted. Some perennials must be sown in the fall Examples are ihe perennial phlox and dictamnus, or gas plant. These require freezing before germination. Primulas also give best result when sown in the fall. While pansies and violas are best sown in August, if you failed to start them then you ran sow them now. Your seed will not produce spring plants as large as those from early sowing, but if you have a shady place to grow them you can have flowers all summer. Do not try to keep your seed beds or boxes warm this winter. Let them freeze before you apply a protective mulch, which is intended to keep them frozen. Winter thaws do the damage rather than the cold. If you have a cold frame, fill it with dry leaves with your seed boxes underneath, and put the sash over it. In the spring the mulch can be removed and some time gained by promoting early growth from the warmth of the sun. If your seed boxes have spent the winter outdoors, do not remove the mulch until the deep frost is out of the ground, then place the boxes in the sun and water as needed. Germination will usually begin while nightly frost i* still usual, but the hardy plants will not be injured. Annual flowers grown from fall gown seed are more vigorous than those started tinker protection in the spring. They usually blossom almost as early, and reach full maturity more quickly.
