HARDY PERENNIALS AND ALPINE PLANTS 
In making up this Spring 1934 Price List we wish to present to our customers a 
list of Perennials and Alpine Plants that will prove most satisfactory throughout the 
middle west. We grow a number of varieties of Perennials that we are not listing 
and if you are needing some odds and ends that we are not offering write us for we 
may have them. 
We grow our own perennials. We dig them fresh from the field after orders are 
received for perennials are very perishable and must be properly and quickly handled 
for best results. We invite you to visit our perennial gardens and packing sheds to 
see how we handle this particular work.
