72 HARDY PERENNIALS—(Continued) 
State Nursery and Seed Co. 
Our collection of Perennials, which affords such a won¬ 
derful and colorful display every Summer and Pall, is the 
largest and best in the Rocky Mountain region, and we are 
continually adding to our stock. Do not confuse our per¬ 
ennial plants with the many seedlings on the market offer¬ 
ed at so-called bargain prices. Our plants are grown in 
pots and are ready to bloom for you,, having passed at 
least one winter in our outdoor perennial frames. When 
you buy perennial plants buy the best of proven acclimated 
strains and varieties such as ours, for they are a permanent 
planting.
