Hardy Herbaceous Perennials. 
N O group of garden flowers is dearer to the hearts of the people than what is 
usually classified as Hardy Herbaceous Perennials, including practically all 
of the interesting so-called old-fashioned garden flowers. Paeonies, Iris, 
Phlox, Poppies, Larkspurs, Foxgloves, Pinks, etc., come under this classification. 
While we carry a very comprehensive collection of these plants, we are con¬ 
fining the present list to a few of the most sturdy—ones which thrive under ordi¬ 
nary garden treatment and which are most useful in creating permanent landscape 
effects where used in groupings with shrubs and trees.
