"In the case of perennials this rule does not work. It benefits the peren- nial plant to cut the flower, but it does not inspire it to become a continuous flowering type. Most perennials pro- duce one or two crops of flowers which cutting does not increase, though it is true that cutting back not only the flowers, but all the growth of del- | phiniums, for example, makes the second crop a better one. "The rule should be to cut annuals as liberally as possible, having regard for the proper display in the borders and to cut perennials more sparingly, cutting only those flowers which are not needed in the garden picture. The annuals will be replaced by nature, but the perennials will not."
