HARDY HERBACEOUS PERENNIALS 
There is a strong appeal in the old-fashioned perennials, 
and with the many varieties now available, every corner 
of the grounds can be kept bright with color throughout 
the season. Gardening has retired to the rear-yard with 
a great impetus during the last two or three years, and we 
are prepared with nearly all sorts for Southern planting. 
In planting perennials we demand two things—varieties 
that will brighten the garden and those which can be cut 
for the house. We are quoting only the items which we 
have in stock, at the present time, for our perennial stock 
is subject to change and we can often supply many other 
varieties. Those suitable for the Rock Garden are marked 
with (*).
