ALL SEASONABLE PLANTS, SEEDS, BULBS AND SUNDRIES 



HARDY PERENNIALS. The most Complete collection of 

 varieties and tlie largest stock In the country. Our Perennial 

 plants have a national reputation, we spare no expense to 

 have them In the b"st possible shape for the planter. Such 

 varieties that move better when pot grown are prepared in 

 this shape; this does not mean little seedlings, but in the 

 miijority of cases the plants were field grown, were dug and 

 potted during the fall and winter months and are of just the 

 right size to give immediate results; they are not to be com- 

 pared with so called field clumps. Try them and be cou- 

 vinced. See Our Current Wholesale liist for Varieties and 

 Prices. 



ROSES FOR OUTDOOR PLANTING TO GIVE IMMEDI- 

 ATE RESULTS. We have three hundred thousand 5 and 6 

 inch pots, the usual Dreer stock and the style of paints your 

 retail customers are looking for. These are all two year field 

 grown plants which have been potted during the winter 

 months and which were stored in cold houses and frames and 

 which are now in prime condition for out-door planting. The 

 collection is the most up-to-date, 'ncluding many new varieties 

 not offered by anyone In the trade.
