HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 
OR OLD-FASHIONED GARDEN FLOWERS 
One of the chief delights that comes from owning a garden is 
in having flowers enough to give one’s friends, as well as for house 
and table decoration. The beauty, variety and lasting qualities 
of Hardy Perennials make them especially useful as cut-flowers. 
They are also equally valuable for adding brightness and color 
to the border beds, and a comparatively small collection will 
enable you to have some flowers in bloom all summer through. 
Directions. —We send you most of these in strong roots. 
Allow from to 4 square feet of space for each, depending 
upon the size and character of the plant. After the first severe 
frost in the fall, cut down the tops to within 3 inches of the 
ground, and give the bed a good coat of half-rotted manure, 
which will both protect the plants and enrich the ground; dig 
this under in the spring before new growth starts.
