Perennials, never more popular than today, comprise most of the best flowers and make a foundation for any garden. They exist in infinite 
variety and provide a succession of flowers in every conceivable hue from early Spring to late Fall and range in size from the tiniest edging 
material to the tall plants suitable for a background. 
For the best effect it is essential to plant in groups. We are therefore continuing to offer perennials in quantities of not less than three of 
one variety as satisfactory results cannot be obtained by using one of a kind. 
Varieties marked (*) are suitable for rock gardens.
