No Waiting for Spring Thaws 

 Before Setting these Plants 



L_| ERE at The Terraces the climate 

 ■ * Ms cold enough to ripen all "hardy 

 plants, and to keep them dormant 

 until early spring. Yet the ground 

 is in such condition that

direct from the ground; there is no 

 need for cold storage or waiting for 

 spring thaws. It is an ideal time 

 for setting Hardy Plants along the 

 Pacific Coast, in the South, and 

 other mild sections. 



My collection of Iris, Phlox, Holly- 

 hocks, Michaelmas Daisies, Even- 

 ing Primroses, and a host of other 

 plants, includes only the rarest and 

 most desirable varieties. 



I pay postage or express charges to any part of the United Stales. 



My Special Catalogue will be sent free to 

 all readers of Garden Magazine who ask for it.

THE GLADIOLUS 



COLOR HARMONY and TINT BOOK 



Like No Other Floral Catalogue You Ever Read 

 A Color Book Without Colors 



"It points the way to still greater heights of beautv to be reached by 

 the use of this already beautiful flower." By a NEW COLOR SYSTEM 

 it offers the cream of over 250 named American, Holland, French and 

 other varieties in such a wav that you can make your selections in as 

 many minutes as it previously took hours poring over " long color 

 descriptions." Beautiful COLOR HARMONY COLLECTIONS (at 

 about one-half price) not obtainable elsewhere. The book is free. Bulbs 

 all our own growing from THE FARM 30 miles east of Brooklyn on 

 Long Island. Long Island soil is peculiarly adapted to growing these 

 bulbs. We would like YOUR OPINION of this book of 42 pages as to 

 its being the SOLUTION of all floral coloring.

Moon's Nurseries Helped Us 



"A more barren, lonesome-looking place than this when we 

 came here you could scarcely imagine. 

 We sent for MOON'S catalog to pick out the trees and 

 shrubs we thought of planting. 



With the catalog we received a letter offering their services if 

 we needed them. We gladly accepted the help. 

 Our property became a home with an air of comfort and right 

 living — an asset to the community and a pride to possess and to 

 share with others." 



The hardihood and rich growth of MOON'S stock are un- 

 excelled and are the result of forty-seven years of nursery 

 experience.
