MICHELLES HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 
19 
FOR ROCK GARDENS, LANDSCAPING, CUT FLOWERS AND HOME GARDENS 
IMPORTANT FOR FLORISTS 
We are presenting herewith our Wholesale Perennial List; checking through, you will note that we are listing one of the best 
assortments for all types of plantings. All plants offered are field grown, except where noted, developed to a point where, after plant¬ 
ing in their permanent locations, they will give immediate results. 
As time goes on, there are more florists realizing the fact that the use of perennials is an important factor in their business 
throughout the dull summer months. 
Within the past few years many florists have made plantings of perennials in some vacant land adjoining or close to their 
greenhouses. They are finding it more important every year to be able to cut outdoor flowers while they are changing soil and pre¬ 
paring their houses for their usual run of greenhouse stock. 
We are advised by many leading florists, who have made a practice of this, that the benefits derived from a perennial planting 
are beyond explanation by mere words. While the greenhouse is idle, perennials All the gap in the way of supplying fresh flowers 
which are suitable for general florists’ use and thus prevents them from ordering flowers from distant wholesale markets. They are 
able at all times to cut fresh flowers for their special work throughout the months of July, August and September, when there are 
practically no greenhouse flowers to be had. An investment in perennials is indispensable and pays returns each year that are many 
times larger than the original amount invested.
