NOTE: Cut-back extra quality clumps. Refer to cut-back spindling plants established in 
Nursery, with splendid root system that should bloom in one to two years. Splendid 
value assured for a little waiting. This stock becomes more readily acclimated under 
varied conditions, making larger average of specimens than where ordinary material 
is used.
