Dreer’s Select 
Hardy Perennial Plants 
On the preceding pages we have given a limited list of varieties which are new or outstanding. In this 
section are offered many others that are indispensable for garden display, the rock garden, and for cutting. 
To make it easy to identify those that are suited to rock garden planting we have marked them A. The 
kinds that will do well in semi-shade are marked ©. Those that may be grown successfully even in quite 
dense shade are marked @. The prices quoted do not include delivery. For postage charges see page 120.
