Perennial Plants and Seeds 
We pride ourselves on the fact that we have an unusual selection of the common and the more rare types, including 
the most recent introductions, of perennial plants, roses, vines, etc. They are propagated, planted, and grown under ideal 
conditions and hardened to our northern climate. YOU ARE INVITED to visit this section of the Nursery at any time 
during the growing season where you will find everything laid out systematically in bed after bed. You may select your 
plants or just view our gorgeous display of flowers. After many years of observation we wish to make this suggestion; 
visit our Nursery every two weeks during the growing season so that not only will you have the spring blooming plants, 
but also plants that bloom the entire summer and fall.
