I want a “hardy garden.” This is a new home, built 
in a small woodland of oak, hickory and pine, with 
clearings made for house and my garden. A 35-foot 
concrete walk in front is bordered with purple iris 
with an edging of crocus. A wide path leads down a 
sunny slope from a concrete bench to a summer house. 
On either side of this I have peonies, roses, pink-spotted 
fragrant lilies, violets, gladioli, chrysanthemums, 
sweet grass pinks, lavender, phlox, hollyhocks, ribbon 
corn (Burbank’s), purple and white lilacs, and the 
clematis planted around the summer-house.—MRS. 
J. M. CHEELY, SuIIigent, Ala. 
Last spring I purchased some plants from you 
which have been most satisfactory, particularly the 
tuberous begonias. They were most beautiful and have 
been greatly admired.—MRS. L. P. CHAPMAN, 
Chestnut Hill, Pa. 
Our goods from your firm arrived safely and we have 
them all planted nicely, we hope, and we are expecting 
great things from our little garden.—MRS. E. B. 
COOLLEY, Danville, III.

this morning in good condition. Please accept my 
thanks for your prompt attention to this order. — MISS 
LAURA C. MacWILLIAMS, Pittsburgh, Pa. 
I received the little package of bulbs which you sent 
me very promptly. They were in excellent condition 
and look promising. — MISS BESSIE MARGARET 
KEMPLE, Colorado Springs, Colorado. 
The delphiniums received in good order this morning, 
and look to be healthy plants. My phlox, dahlias, etc., 
received from you in the spring, have given us much 
pleasure this summer. The dahlias are now a mass of 
bloom. —MRS. J. B. STROUSE, Louisville, Ky. 
Everything was in fine shape and if they do not grow 
it cannot be your fault. It was kind of you, indeed, to 
send the extra iris bulbs and they will add much to 
the interest and delight of the old lady and gentleman 
for whom I am trying to build a hardy garden.—MRS. 
F. W. TERFLINGER, Logansport, Ind. 
The plants arrived last week in excellent condition. 
I am greatly pleased with them.—J. G. DUNBAR, 
Elginton P. O., Canada.
