MICHELL’S HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 
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. 
As time goes on, there are more florists realizing the fact that the use of perennials is an important factor in their business through¬ 
out 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 green¬ 
houses. They are finding it more important every year to be able to cut outdoor flowers while they are changing soil and preparing 
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 fill the gap in the way of supplying fresh flowers which 
are suitable for general florists’ use and thus prevent 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. 
ALL PERENNIALS OFFERED ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES ARE FIELD GROWN PLANTS EXCEPT WHERE NOTED 
Use Perennials for Summer cutting, for Forcing in the Winter and for Landscaping and Rockeries. Varieties marked (*) are especially 
suited for cutting, while varieties marked (R) are indispensable for Rockeries.
