HARDY PERENNIALS 
Our collection of Perennials, which affords such a won¬ 
derful and colorful display every Summer and Pall, is the 
largest and best in the Rocky Mountain region, and we are 
continually adding to our stock. For our climate in the 
Northwest there is no question but that they are by far 
the best class of plants for those who desire a profusion of 
bloom with the lest expenditure of effort. Do not confuse 
our perennial plants with the many seedlings so often on 
the market at such seemingly low prices. Our plants are 
grown in pots and are all blooming size and have passed at 
least one winter in our outdoor perennial frames. When 
you buy perennial plants buy the best and proven accli¬ 
mated strains and varieties for they are a permanent plant¬ 
ing.
