Vegetable and Bedding Plants 
Brainard’s 
BEDDING PLANTS 
To meet the continually increasing demand for Bedding Plants, created by the many diversified pur¬ 
poses for which they are used today, we devote our entire 1 5,000 feet of glass, during the spring months, 
to the raising of Bedding Plants, and we devote endless efforts in trials and studies of new and im¬ 
proved varieties. 
Decidedly renewed interest is apparent in the Bedding Plant trade and keen interest shown in the 
wonderful recent development of new varieties of Cannas, Lantanas, Verbenas, Petunias and others, and 
all of the above we grow in many varieties, and can supply your needs whether it be for bedding, ver¬ 
anda boxes or the open border. 
Permit us to say that, in these lines, we grow a uniformly higher quality of stock than is usually 
offered. All Bedding Plants are ready for shipping about May 10th to 15th and the shipping season con¬ 
tinues until well into late June. 
Pansy Plants “Of Quality” 
Pansies for years with us a specialty. Brainard’s 
Monster strain Pansies which we grow by thou¬ 
sands are not to be compared to the ordinary bas¬ 
keted plants commonly sold as good Pansies. Why? 
Our plants are all raised from hand picked seed of 
our own growing from plants selected for their uni¬ 
formity of growth, enormous flowers and gorgeous 
colorings. Our seed beds are thinly sown and the 
plants twice transplanted, permitting wonderful 
root development and sufficiently spaced to pro¬ 
duce strong, short, sturdy plants.
