HARDY PERENNIALS 
J1JARDY perennials are the most satisfactory things to plant in any garden, for they come up year after year 
increasing in beauty untif they are like old friends and we reckon the seasons by their familiar faces. The 
iris are first, delicate Orchid like blossoms which if planted with judicious selection of varieties continue in bloom 
until July. Heavy headed Peonies fragrant and beautiful make the garden glorious throughout June weather, 
plaited singly or in clumps. Hardy Phlox, pink, white, red and purple by a selection of early and late ^ar.oti'- 
may be had from June to late fall. Blue Delphinium, Lily of the Valley, Sweet William and Hollyhocks an< 
the Asters in the rutumn are only a few of the flowers that may be be suggested. For a complete list <ee Pap 
92 of this catalogue. A good soil with a little fertilizing every year is all that is necessary for their - t ei k etuation.
