Perennial Flowers 
These beautiful flowering plants, when once established, will make an enjoyable garden 
display year after year, from early spring until late fall. Proper selection and arrangement 
will produce splendid effects of color. Do you know the June charm of the pale blue lark¬ 
spur {Delphinium belladonna) with the salmon-pink of the Mrs. Perry Oriental poppy 
against a cloud of grey-white Baby’s Breath? Or the contrast of blue, lavender, violet, 
and gold to be had in the autumn from combining Michaelmas daisies with tall sneezeworts? 
All these and many others are here for your selection. The true perennials themselves 
may be augmented by spring, summer, and fall bulbs or with tuberous-rooted plants 
such as Peonies and Irises shown elsewhere in this catalogue. Iris pallida dalmatica and 
Paeonia edulis superha make a fine contrast of color and fragrance. 
The plants we offer below are the largest size, 1-year-oId, field-grown, transplanted 
stock and have been hardened off by a winter’s exposure in the field. Each is wrapped 
individually in its own root-soil.
