Fair's Hardy Plant Specialties 



For Early Spring Planting 



Y^AR AFTER YEAR the hardy garden grows 

 -I more charming and valuable as the plants in- 

 crease in size and blooming power. Early spring is 

 a desirable time for selecting and planting 

 most perennials and shrubs. 



In my comprehensive collection at 

 Wyomissing may be found plants suitable 

 for every phase of gardening. A few of 

 these are here noted — to list them all would 

 be impossible. 



IRISES. An unusual and distinctive collection including many novel- 

 ties of my own raising (awarded the Panama-Pacific Gold Medal). 



PEONIES. The most complete collection of herbaceous and tree 

 Peonies in the world. 



DELPHINIUMS, PHLOXES, CHRYSANTHEMUMS, 



TROLLIUS, LONGSPURRED AQUILEGIAS, 

 HARDY ASTERS, NEW ASTILBE, ROSES, DAHLIAS. 

 New Japanese and Asiatic Shrubs. New cotoneasters, enkian- 

 thus, berberies, flowering cherries, corylopsis, etc. 



Lilacs, Philadelphus and Deutzias. A complete collection of 

 Lemoine's new creations. 



Dwarf Evergreens. Rare specimens for formal gardens, lawn groups 

 and rock garden plantings. 



A complete list of my collection of Hardy Plants and Shrubs 

 will be found in 



Farr's Hardy Plant Specialties 



(Sixth Edition, issue of 1918) 112 pages of text, 30 full page 

 illustrations (13 in color). Most well-informed gardeners have 

 a copy, but if you have not received it, or it has been mislaid, 

 a duplicate will be sent promptly on request.

Planning the Garden. So many have asked me to help them plan their gardens 

 that I have found it necessary to form a special department in charge of a skilled land- 

 scape designer and plantsman. I will be glad to assist you in any way desired by off- 

 hand suggestions, or by the preparation of detailed plans for which a charge will be 

 made. 



Trial ? Of Course 



Send 25c for a small 10 day 



test sample. 



One user says that's what happened 

 to his tree after a few feeds of the 

 odorless liquid fertilizer 



""""FERTILE 



We won't promise similar results for you 

 but really Nitro-Fertile contains the more im- 

 portant plant foods in such easily assimilable 

 form that the results some times seem 

 marvelous. 



Then too — it is fed regularly every few 

 weeks throughout the growing season when 

 by old-fashioned methods the plants would 

 be starved.
