You All 
Remember 
Grandmother’s 
Garden, Don’t 
You? 
What a glorious treat! No 
lack of bloom or color there. 
Plants that grew stately, 
strong, with spikes of blue 
and pink. Stocky Sweet 
Williams with their gaudy 
colors. Fragrant Phlox with 
immense trusses of bloom 
and brilliant colors. Pert and 
saucy varieties that grew 
gayly among the abundance 
and riot of flowers of every 
description. 
Remember! 
You also remember, too, 
don’t you, that Grandmother 
kept these same plants from 
year to year without much 
fuss and bother. She just 
planted them and they grew 
and grew. These were Per¬ 
ennials. 
Today we give you Grand' 
mother’s favorites as well as 
many new types that were 
not so well known in those 
days. These plants will give 
your garden new blood, new 
pep and vigor. Let’s bring 
back grandmother’s garden 
and make it better than 
grandmother ever dreamed 
of.
