Having had frequent proofs of the great difficulty experienced by many of our patrons and 
others, in making an effective and satisfactory selection of the above plants, we venture to 
think that we shall meet a general requirement of the present day, by offering at the above 
exceedingly low price our Swanley Collection of Hardy Herbaceous Plants, Florists’ Flowers and 
Bulbs, carefully selected for the purpose of giving more or less bloom in the open garden during at 
least nine months of the year. The plants are all such as will live and increase in effectiveness 
from year to year in an ordinary border, and all are sufficiently hardy to thrive in any part of the 
United Kingdom. 
We shall be happy to advise intending purchasers as to quantity of plants, &c., for any given beds 
or borders, if particulars are sent as to dimensions, aspect, and soil.
