Flowering Plants 
Selected Hardy Perennials 
‘We offer a list of old time favorites that need no introduction. 
The plants have been carefully selected and prepared. 
They can be transplanted in spring as soon as the soil can be 
prepared, or put out in the fall at least 30 days before winter sets 
in. It is a great help to give the new plants a light covering of 
leaves, coarse straw, or other mulch, and see that they are well 
moistened to carry them through the winter. 20c each; 3 for 55c; 
10 for $1.75. Shipping' weight, 1 plant 1 lb; 3 plants 2 lbs; 10 
plants 3 lbs. Please allow postage if ordered shipped by parcel 
post.
