Hardy 'Perennial and Rock Garden Plants 
GARDNER'S HARDY BLIZZARD BELT PLANTS 
The demand for Hardy Perennials is growing rapidly, 
as more and more Home Builders find how easily they 
are grown. These Hardy plants once set in your garden 
will grow and blossom for many years. They live out 
doors and only require a light mulch for winter protec¬ 
tion in the coldest parts of the United States. They fit 
in with all kinds of landscape plans and add color and 
beauty to any home place, all out of proportion to their 
small cost. A few dollars invested in Perennials will go 
farther and give more pleasure and enjoyment than dou¬ 
ble the amount in any other kind of planting. If you are 
already growing perennials you know of the great pleas¬ 
ure and satisfaction they give and how each plant gets 
to be an old friend as you watch their developement, 
year after year, with the most absorbing interest. You are 
always alert and anxious to secure other varieties to add 
to your collection and so make new friends that will give 
you a larger variety of flowers and cover a longer period 
of blooming. The more you have the greater is your 
enjoyment. 
If you are not yet a Perennial fan, I urge you to start a few plants this season. 
By selecting some of the most popular varieties like. Oriental Poppies, Sweet 
William, Canterbury Bells, Hollyhocks, Perennial Asters, etc., you cannot 
help but be successful and you are sure to be greatly pleased as the plants 
develope and grow great loads of beautiful flowers from year to year, with 
but little care and attention. 
If you want to start on a little larger scale a few plants of each of the fol¬ 
lowing varieties will give you a succession of flowers from spring until late 
fall, starting in May with the Dwarf Phlox Subulata and ending with the 
Perennial Aster in late fall.
