SoW Sutton’s Seeds and you sow the best.” 
This slogan is so well known by all who 
have gardened or “sown seeds” for any length 
of time that it needs no further comment. We 
cannot refrain, however, from mentioning that 
we are very proud to have been selected by this 
world famous English concern to distribute 
their flower seeds in America. 
Besides the very complete listings of Sutton’s 
Flower Seeds, there is offered a wide selection 
of perennial and rock plant seeds. All these 
have been gathered at Wayside Gardens where 
the largest collection of Hardy plants in Amer- 
ica is grown. These seeds have been gathered 
from selected “stock plants”, and are used by 
ourselves for the growing of the well known 
“Wayside Hardy Plants”. 
Two Other Catalogs You Should Have 
The Wayside Gardens “Hardy Plant Cata¬ 
log” and the “Bulb Catalog” are two unusual 
catalogs. So much so that both are used as text 
books in many schools; they are kept on file in 
public libraries and hundreds of garden clubs 
and gardeners use them for reference books. All 
because we have made them more than just 
price lists. They contain complete cultural in¬ 
structions for each plant and are a guide to all 
of the worth-while plants and bulbs. The old 
“stand-bys” as well as the latest introductions. 
As we have said before, these catalogs have 
proven so outstandingly valuable that hundreds 
of people write for them to use as handbooks, 
which is very fine, but rather costly for Way- 
side Gardens when these books bring no orders. 
We have, therefore, decided to charge 25 cents 
for each of these catalogs. But this amount will 
be credited on your first order of plants or bulbs. 
A coin card for your convenience is inclosed. 
Old customers may disregard this notice. Both 
“Plant” and “Bulb” catalogs will be mailed to 
them in due season.
