Some Favorite Annuals
A few Annuals may well be added to these lists. Even though Annuals must be planted every Spring, there are many worth the trouble; in fact, a garden would look lonesome without some of the old favorites.
A very convenient arrangement is to give one bed in the vegetable garden to the starting of Annuals.
The plants may be moved, when some size, to the hardy garden, near the place of some of the Perennials which die down; for instance, hyacinths, tulips, and other bulbs. Indeed, those having short roots may be placed directly over the bulbs after their leaves have withered and dried.
A border of low-growing Annuals along the vegetable beds makes the vegetable garden a place of beauty.
