Perennial and Rock Garden 
PLANT 
While most of these are rock garden plants, it must 
be emphasized that each has peculiarly good use in other 
situations, such as edgers. solid bedders. and accent plants. 
Every item is much above the average in quality or 
newness. 
This modest list of top-notch quality is composed of 
very hardy not difficult items. 
AH post-free. Quantities quoted on if you state num¬ 
ber wanted. No wholesale list. Quick delivery, subject 
only to ground still frozen, as may happen at times. 
No shrubs for sale. 
No plant here is bi-ennial. that is no plant here dies 
after it blooms well. 
Nothing here is at all common, but I have probably 
1000 other more common but good items it will not pay to 
list. 
ACHILLEA NANA—A line green leaved creeper that 
can be walked on as it is so dense and tough. White dowers 
in June. Fills crevices nicely. Shade or sun. 20c. 
ACHILLEA “SULPHURS”—Most achillea is yellow in 
bloom. I have some hybrids of cream and sulphur tones 
that are very pleasing. A foot high. Four different ones 
for $1. 4

inch yellow bloom, early. A neglected native. Toler¬ 
ates drought and hot sun. 20c.
