There's joy in a border of old-fashioned flowers like this that gives an uninterrupted succession of bloom during 



the open months of the year. 



Hardy Perennial Plants 



IT is no wonder that these grand, old-fashioned, hardy garden flowers continue to increase in popularity, 

 because there is not a time during the whole flower season in which some hardy perennial is not in 

 bloom; and when the wooded shrubs are almost bare of flowers in July and August these little plants 

 may be depended upon to make a grand display. Year after year they reappear and flower abundantly, 

 requiring scarcely any attention. 



The size mentioned in the descriptions indicates the approximate height that the plant may be 

 expected to attain at maturity. The months represent the season of bloom. 



Our experience in past years has taught us that express is the safest method of shipping 

 perennials because of their perishable nature. We therefore reserve the right to ship in this 

 manner when, in our judgment, it seems advisable. Orders for a few plants only, can be sent 

 by Parcel Post. 



Prices of Perennials, except where otherwise noted, are $0.25 each; $1.75 per 10; $14.00 per 100
