WOOD’S SwK HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 
Fall planting of most perennials is more 
preferable than Spring planting, because con¬ 
ditions are such that plants reset at this time 
quickly ajdust themelves to the change. 
When Spring opens they will have become 
thoroughly established, thus eliminating the 
usual setback that occurs when plants are 
moved in the Spring. This assures more and 
finer blooms.
