EMMA V. WHITE CO. 



HARDY PERENNIALS 



The best and most satisfactory type of plants for large beds and borders. Requiring 

 the least care. Order in June and July — plant in August, September and October for best 

 results. Have a perennial garden. They are easily raised from seed, being sowed in the 

 spring or early summer. They should be sown in seed beds and transplanted either once 

 or twice, preferably twice. It is necessary to keep the seed beds pretty moist but not 

 saturated and to protect the seedlings from the hot rays of the sun. Perennials will give 

 yon) a great deal of satisfaction and those who love flowers would rather grow them from! 

 seed than to buy the plants. However, for the setting out of an entirely new garden we 

 would recommend the use of plants so as to get a more rapid start the first year.
