HARDY FERNS 
The most beautiful and natural effects can 
be produced by planting hardy ferns. They 
should be planted to be protected from the 
prevailing winds. They are perfectly hardy 
and can stand planting either in shady or 
sunny positions. 
The Hardy Ferns are most satisfactory for 
planting on shady banks and around porches 
where the sun does not reach. They are 
valuable in that they do well in any good 
well drained soil and require practically no 
care. No home should be without them. We 
can furnish either of the following varieties.
