Perennials comprise most of the best flowers as well as the foundation of any well planned 
garden. They exist in infinite varieties, sizes, colors and seasonable bloom. 
The material we grow is sirong field grown stock with the exception of some varieties which 
transplant better grown in pots. 
We of ter perennials in quantities of three, instead of singly, as we believe, generally speak¬ 
ing, it isn't practical to get a satisfactory garden effect by using one plant of a kind. Please 
remember that five plants or more of one variety will be priced at the ten rate and that 
twenty-five or more of one kind will be entitled to the hundred rate when such rate is given. 
(r) Particularly adapted to the Rock Garden.
