FOR SUMMER PLANTING 



Have you a corner or spot in your garden where you have had a failure or where possibly you have planted something 

 that does not please you? If so, look over the list of pot=grown Hardy Perennial Plants here offered and you will 

 likely find the subject that you need for just such fill-up work and adjustment, or, an equally satisfactory selection can be 

 made for the planting of entire new beds or borders. 



The varieties listed are the most desirable sorts for late planting ; many of them such that will give a good account 

 of themselves this season, and ail of them varieties which, by having the balance of this season to become established in, 

 will make all the better display next summer.
