No Waiting For Spring Thaws 
Ready for the Pacific Coast and the South now, 
for the East in the Spring. 
I N my garden in the high mountains of Northern California, frequent frosts 
coupled with cool winds, harden my plants splendidly and retard them so 
that they can be shipped early and late. Fresh plants dug every week in the 
winter go out to any distance safely. 
My collection of HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS will interest every true 
gardener. Old favorites such as Hollyhocks, Irises, Phlox, Anemones, are well 
represented; many others are offered in their newest and best varieties, not mere 
novelties but tried selections. 
Then for the rock garden, the wild garden and the water garden I have good 
things ; while with all of these are first-class novelties such as Bellium minutum , Onosma 
taurica, rare Sedums and Origanum hybridum, offered by no other American dealer. 
My Hardy Perennial Catalogue Can Be Had For the Asking 
as long as the second edition lasts. 
My catalogue is not a mere descriptive and price list — it contains many 
suggestions for the best grouping and handling of plants; list of plants for special 
purposes, and a short group of the very best things that I offer regardless of price. 
In cultural directions no other American catalogue is so explicit; it tells when, 
where, how far apart, and in what soils to plant. In short, it is a garden guide of 
such character as to give it a place in the classrooms of colleges and to make 
it a treasured book that real gardeners have always ready for reference. 
In order to place some excellent hardy plants within the reach of all I make the following special 
offer, good for December and January. All are perfectly hardy in the United States and of easy culture: 
6 Salvia azurea 6 Michaelmas Daisies in two varieties 
6 Pentstemon barbatus Torreyii 12 Hollyhocks, 10 colors of doubles, 
J and two or singles 
6 Origanum hybridum 6 Oenothera fruticosa 
These 42 plants will be mailed Postpaid for $5 to any address in the U. S. Orders must 
be received before February 1, 1921, but plants will be shipped at the best time for your location.
