I am presenting here an unusually attractive 
list of Hardy Perennials. It would be very easy 
to extend the list indefinitely, but I am confin¬ 
ing the list to those items that I am sure flower 
lovers will be glad to have in their gardens. 
Hardy Perennials are easy to grow, requiring 
less care than annuals, or other garden plants. 
When once planted they can be depended upon 
to give a permanence to the garden by con¬ 
tinuing to flower year after year with little care. 
With the ,addition of Perennials an everbloom- 
ing garden may easily be created. Most of 
them are particularly useful for cut flowers. 
All are hardy anywhere and the plants I will 
send will all be large, healthy, two year field 
grown specimens, with masses of fibrous roots, 
ready to produce an abundance of flowers. 
Perennials should never be planted singly, but 
for best effect should always be planted in 
clumps of several plants of a variety, or in 
masses.
