N the above illustration we show, as far as the limited space will allow, an old-fashioned garden. There has been a growing demand 
of late for hardy plants, particularly for the old and well-known favorites so lovingly remembered in connection with the old 
home. Itis not for this reason alone we offer this collection; itis mainly because the plants themselves possess merit in advance 
of many of the aspirants for fayor which are annually trumpeted forth as marvels, but sink into merited obscurity in a short time. 
But of such plants as the old sweet-scented Cabbage Rose, Clove Pink, Bleeding Heart, Sweet Violet and the others offered in the 
Old-Fashioned Garden Collection, it may be said they are ever young in the people’s hearts. In the collection offered below we have 
grouped together what, in our opinion, are the most likely to give satisfaction. They are selected with a view to beauty in the open 
ground, and availability for cutting for vases of flowers, bouquets, etc. To make this collection popular we have made the price very 
low, quality of plants considered.
