PEACE ARCH NURSERIES, BLAINE, WASH. 
Hardy Perennials 
These form the backbone of any 
garden. Care should be used in their 
selection and planting, as once planted, 
they should be left undisturbed where 
they can, year after year, increase in 
size and beauty. 
Prices, unless otherwise noted, are 
25c each for large, blooming size speci¬ 
mens; while smaller sizes and divisions 
are half this price. Delivery October to 
early summer but we recommend early 
spring planting.
