Why start from seed or bulb? There are a few reasons.
* Satisfaction of watching something grow from a tiny seed to a beautiful garden flower.
* Greater choice instead of having to choose among a limited number of annuals available at your garden store, you can choose your own from dozens of species in hundreds of varieties.
* Save money seeds and supplies cost less than buying adult plants.
* Seed packets will come with instructions for your particular plant; this guide is meant as a general reference only.
