Perennials should be well cultivated, fertilized and watered. For finest 
flowers keep all old blooms and stalks cut out. Most types should be reset 
every two years to prevent roots from becoming root-bound. In our peren¬ 
nials you have the advantage of freshly dug, thoroughly acclimated stock. 
In most cases we furnish strong clump divisions which keep right on grow¬ 
ing and are not stunted by resetting as is the case with small weak plants. 
Each and every perennial we send out is guaranteed to grow and will be 
replaced to your satisfaction. The following uniformly priced at $1.60 per 
dozen, 7 divisions $1.00, each 15c, unless otherwise noted. 
We recommend early spring planting in this region for practically all 
perennials. If fall planted it should be done early. Plants should be well 
watered and coarsely mulched the first winter.
