PERENNIALS 
Figure at right of name indicates average mature height. 
We introduce to you this year a new department. We would 
also like to introduce Miss Alice Wood who has grown these peren¬ 
nials. Miss Wood has been giving us valuable assistance in the 
office this past season as well as supervising the planting and 
growing of these plants in a plot at Arapahoe Acres. She has had 
considerable training, and we invite you to let her assist you in 
the planning of new perennial borders or the remodelling of old 
ones. 
We have put off stocking perennials until we were able to 
make our line of trees and shrubs more nearly complete, and there 
was someone capable of taking care of them. The list of perennials 
is far from complete, but Miss Wood plans to add desirable var¬ 
ieties each year. From the 90 varieties already planted she has 
chosen some of the newer introductions and a few old favorites 
to list below. Prices are 35c each, four of one kind for $1.00, 
except where otherwise noted. Prices are net.
