Good Novelties and Little Known Plants 
Every year hundreds of SO-CALLED NOVELTIES are offered us for intro¬ 
duction. In our two-year field tests, we find that the greatest number of them 
are of no particular value, and are without merit. Offered on these two pages 
are plants which have made good in our nursery as well as in several "Test 
Gardens" all over the country. 
We recommend them to you without hesitation as the better things for 1939.
