All gardeners and lovers of flowers know about the importance of hardy plants in the garden. 
How they grow larger and finer each year when given modest care. 
You can enjoy the blooms of perennial plants from early spring until late fall if you use a 
little care in selecting your varieties. The most successful garden can be obtained by planting 
early in the spring and early in the fall. It is advisable to have at least 3 plants of a variety, 
so as to make a clump; use more if your space permits. You will find that your garden will be 
easier to care for and more satisfactory. 
We offer you in the following pages the better varieties and some of the latest novelties. 
Be sure to keep in mind that all of our plants are field grown and are not small divisions or 
pot plants as are sometimes sent out. When it is necessary to send pot plants, they will be well 
developed, strong and husky so as to give you fine results the first season. 
Varieties marked with a * are suitable for rock garden planting.
