Collection of Outstanding Perennials 
For Cut Flower and General Decorative Planting 
To follow spring'flowering bulbs in the border and cut flower garden, this 
collection of perennials will produce a continuous supply of flowers until frost. 
We have included a comprehensive range of color and type to satisfy a 
variety of tastes in perennial planting. We wish to emphasize that these plants 
will flower when available cut flowers are scarce in the garden. 
Aster Frikarti, Wonder of Staffa 
We con.^ider this hardy aster the most outstanding intro¬ 
duction in years; certainly the most suitable hardy aster 
grown today. The plants are disease-resistant, robust, and 
bloom from July to November. It is therefore an addition 
to any perennial or border planting where showy mass 
effect is desirable. The plants are actually covered with 
lavender-blue flowers. lYl inches in diameter, borne on 
wiry stems, 2 to l\/i feet in length. 
Heliopsis Scabra Excelsa 
Similar in habit to Helianthus, but bloom earlier, the 
flowering season being from mid-July to end of September. 
Almost double chrome-yellow flowers turning bright yellow 
as they mature. Height about 3 feet. 
Shasta Daisy, White Swan 
Double white Memorial Day daisy. Pure white flowers 
on strong, wiry stems, 24 to 30 inches long. Blooms May 
to July. 
Thermopsis Caroliniana 
Yellow pea-like flowers produced in racemes 6 to 12 
inches long during June and July. Has the appearance of 
a yellow Lupine. Rich green foliage. Height, 3 to 3)/2 feet. 
Veronica, Blue Spires 
Far superior to the well-known Spicata. The plants, 
2 feet high, produce lovely deep blue spikes of flowers in 
abundance throughout July and August. A fine, new intro¬ 
duction of real merit for the cutting garden or border. 
Heuthera, Pluie de Feu 
COLLECTION 
The graceful habit and delicate beauty of this coral-red 
heuchera make it adapted for many purposes, being at 
home in any half-shaded or sunny position in the mixed 
border, in the rockery, or in mass plantings. The plants 
produce numerous slender erect stems about 18 inches 
high, that last in good condition for a long time. These 
form excellent decorative material and flower from late 
May through August.
