HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS. 



For Permanent Planting in Borders or Beds. 



The collection olfared herein, though large, yet by no means covers our entire collection. New varieties 

 are constantly being added. Many rare and beautiful subjects are not catalogued at all, owing to the diffi- 

 culty of keeping on hand a stock to meet demands. It is well to seek from us anything in the line of hardy 

 herbaceous perennials that may be needed, though we may not quote them, as, if we do not happen to have 

 it in stock, we are probably in the best position of any one in America to obtain the needed item at shortest 

 reasonable time and at current rates. 



Special Terms. 



We are always ready to make special offers of hardy plants in quantity and can make terms very satis- 

 factorv in all cases.
