32 HARDY PERENNIALS. 
STATE NURSERY CO. 
Hardy Perennials 
From a small beginning 25 years ago our Perennial Department has developed into one of the largest 
branches of our business. Today we are enabled to offer you the widest and largest assortment of Perennials 
in the Great Northwest. This has been accomplished solely on the broad principal of giving our customers 
full value for their money and supplying only the very best grade of stock. 
Our wide circle of patrons are also at an advantage in that we are GROWERS OF THE PEREN- 
NIALS THAT WE SELL and are thus enabled to give better values than if we were simply buyers. 
For many years we have been supplying the most critical amateur and professional gardeners in this state 
with their stock of perennial plants and the steady growth in our business during this period has been conclusive 
evidence that OUR PLANTS ARE RELIABLE AND OUR CUSTOMERS SATISFIED. 
WE ARE THE NORTHWEST LEADERS IN PERENNIALS. No plants are listed in our lists 
as hardy that have not been thoroughly proved to be adaptable to the Northwest. No lawn of the ornamental 
kind is complete without a liberal proportion of hardy flowering plants. The rapid growth they make, com- 
bined with the small amount of care they require makes them a general favorite. By judicious selection your 
garden can have plants in bloom all the summer. Another important factor is their use for indoor decorations, 
providing exquisite flowers six months out of the year. LOOK THROUGH OUR ASSORTMENT OF 
PERENNIALS, PLACE YOUR ORDER WITH US AND BE ASSURED OF ENTIRE SAT- 
ISFACTION.
