PERENNIALS 
Plant more perennials. By care in their selection, beautiful flowers may be had from spring 
until late fall. We have several thousand strong transplanted plants, most of which will bloom 
freely this year. We have some strong three year clumps consisting of Orientale Poppy, Columbine, 
Shasta Daisy, Pinks, Hollyhocks, Gaillardia, and Coreopsis. Clumps are extra heavy and will 
bloom profusely the first year. 
Perennial flowers are the most essential part of a beautiful garden. After once planting them, 
they will come up year after year, requiring very little care and attention. Plan to plant a few 
beautiful perennials next Spring and enjoy the beauty and color of these delightful flowers. 
In the list below we are grouping them in three groups so as to enable you to select the ones 
most suited to your needs. We will gladly furnish a perennial planting plan free of charge for any 
order of $3.50 or more. So plan now to add to the beauty and value of your home with these 
flowers.

DUTCH BULBS 
Every spring when tulips, hyacinths and nar* 
cissus are in their full glory of bloom folks say: 
“Oh, if I had only planted some bulbs last fall. 
Just look how pretty the flowers are in the 
yards of my neighbors.’’ These bulbs come from 
Holland and can only be planted in the fall 
months. 
Our fall bulbs are imported from the best 
growers in Holland and customers can rely on 
the best there is grown. They will be in a.nd 
ready to set about October first; the selection 
of varieties we consider the best of each class. 
DUTCH BULBS —At this time January 1, 
1936 we are unable to quote prices on tulips, 
hyacinths and narcissus bulbs as there are pros¬ 
pects for a very short crop in 1936 in Holland, 
and we will not be able to get prices on them 
before next summer.
