To those of our Clients making rockeries and requiring an early effect, we can generally 
offer various low growing Alpine and Herbaceous plants, such as have .spreading growth, to 
cover rocks, ledges, &c., from 1/- to 3/6 per square foot, according to sods. Buying m 
this way is more economical and saves time, but nothing new, or rare can be ottered 111 tnis 
way ; only surplus stock that may be on hand.
