DREER’S COLLECTIONS OF HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 
The list of Hardy Perennial Plants which we offer is admitted to be one of the most complete and up-to-date collections in the country 
and we are continually adding all the new, rare and desirable sorts. 
While we are not in the landscape business and cannot undertake the preparation of plans for planting or, 
laying out of grounds we have had prepared by a competent landscape architect a series of Plans of Hardy Borders witha list 
of suitable plants for positions either in sun or shade. We will be pleased to send a leaflet containing same free on application. These 
collections are made up of species and varieties strictly of our selection, and we are unable to submit list of contents, as 
the assortment varies at different periods during the planting season.
