Let us quote you on your list of wants. In large quantities we can make 
you better prices on many items we have in surplus. 
We are frequently asked for general information in regard to proper plant¬ 
ing times of perennials. 
Perennials as a general rule, with the exception of those that love water, 
thrive best on good garden soil, well drained, and especially good surface drain¬ 
age, so that no excessive moisture or water accumulates in beds in winter, which 
with changeable frost action is detrimental. 
As a general rule, perennials are best moved during September, October 
and up to frozen ground time in the Fall, and then again in Spring, beginning 
with the time when the first shoots begin to show green uii perennials; and from 
that time up into May until too much foliage and hot days terminate successful 
planting. 
Iris of various sorts transplant particularly well shortly after blooming time, 
when they can be divided and pruned back for new plantings. 
Peonies are best transplanted at any time during the Fall months, even up 
into cold weather; but if Spring planted, move them as early in Spring as pos¬ 
sible. 
Mulching perennial beds in colder climates should be done with material 
such as dry straw, hay, oak leaves, but never with leaves from soft wood trees, 
or fertilizer, or grass clippings, such as will pack down and not allow the air to 
reach plants. The latter environment generally creates a heating and rotting 
condition, and produces a loss whether in the first or in subsequent years after 
planting. Apply mulch only after frost has entered the ground to depth of sev¬ 
eral inches. 
Perennials also like an occasional application of good garden fertilization 
if soil is sour, but apply with caution. If the ground is sour, apply limestone 
screenings (size one-eighth inch to dust) liberally before applying fertilizer. 
Varieties marked with a (-A) are particularly adapted for the rock garden. 
Varieties marked with a (G) are suitable for waterside planting and damp 
places. 
Varieties marked with a (♦) are good ground covers.
