Flower Beds Need Protection 
Leaves and brush make an ideal cold-weather covering for 
bulbs and flowers. To keep this covering from being blown 
away by wintry winds, from littering the lawn and leaving 
the bulbs exposed to the cold, surround the beds with 
Lawn and Flower Bed Guards 
They will afldrd protection the whole year round, warding off 
the ravages of small animals and enhancing the appearance of 
the bed when the flowers bloom. They are heavily galvanized 
to prevent rust and will last for years. 
Other hemte-and-g^ounds beautijiers are Excelsior Rust Proof 
Trellises, Trellis Arches, Tree Guards and Fence. Ashyour hard'
