Let us quote you on your list of wonts. In large quantities we can make you better prices on 
many items we have in surplus. 
We are frequently asked for general information in regard to proper planting times of perennials. 
Perennials as a general rule, with the exception of those that love water, thrive best on good 
garden soil, well drained, and especially good surface drainage, so that no excessive moisture or water 
accumulates in beds in winter, which with changeable frost action is detrimental. 
As a general rule, perennials are best moved during September, October and up to frozen ground 
time in the Fall, and then again in Spring, beginning with the time when the first shoots begin to 
show green on perennials; and from that time up into May until too much foliage and hot days 
terminate successful planting. 
Iris of various sorts transplant particularly well shortly after blooming time, when they can be 
divided and pruned back for new plantings. 
Peonies are best transplanted at any time during the Fall months, even up into cold weather; but 
if Spring planted, move them as early in Spring as possible. 
Mulching perennial beds in colder climates should be done with material such as dry straw, hay, 
oak leaves, but never with leaves from soft wood trees, or fertilizer, or grass clippings, such as 
will pack down and not allow the air to reach plants. The latter environment generally creates a 
heating and rotting condition, and produces a loss whether in the first or in subsequent years after 
planting. Apply mulch only after frost has entered the ground to depth of several inches. 
Perennials also like an occasional application of good garden fertilization if soil is sour, but apply 
with caution. If the ground is sour, apply limestone screenings (size one-eighth inch to dust) liberally 
before applying fertilizer. 
Varieties marked with a (-^l are particularly adapted for the rock garden. 
Varieties marked with a ( ^ ) are suitable for waterside planting and damp places. 
Varieties marked with a ( ^) are good ground covers.
