CUTTING’S NURSERY 
HARDY PERENNIALS 
"P ERENNIALS are becoming more and more popular with the increase in gardening. 
-*• No home grounds are now completely planted without a border of these con¬ 
tinuously blooming plants. If you plan carefully you can have flowers all year. For 
your selection there is listed here a wide variety of those dependable, hardy plants, 
that once established, assure you of a succession of blossom without the constant 
trouble of replanting. Prices of perennials, except as noted: 25c each; 12 for $2.50. 
Strong, field-grown plants that will bloom the first year. 
FALL BLOOMING ASTERS 
Plant these brilliant fall-blooming hardy 
Asters and prolong your blooming season 
a full month. Have your garden a place 
of dazzling splendor when all about is 
brown and sere. They will bring a world 
of color during late September, all of 
October, and on into November until 
heavy freezing kills the flowers. These 
plants stand our Minnesota winters un¬ 
protected. 
ADORABLE —Best true pink hardy aster. 
Habit and growth are similar to Harring¬ 
ton Pink but color is slightly deeper sal¬ 
mon pink. 50c. 
MOUNT EVEREST— The finest and best 
white aster. It forms very tall, well¬ 
shaped pointed pyramids with an abun¬ 
dance of lateral growths, which flower 
right down to the ground. Makes wonder¬ 
ful bouqets as cut flowers. 
BLUE GEM —Large lovely flowers of 
blue with a yellow center, best blue in 
cultivation. September until frost. 3 to 4 
feet. 
CHARLES WILSON— A brilliant red 
which is becoming very popular through¬ 
out the country. 3 feet high. 
BEECHWOOD CHALLENGER — This 
variety is in our opinion the closest to 
red we have been able to come so far 
in Hardy Asters. It is free-flowering, of 
medium height, and brilliant crimson-red 
color. The flowers are freely produced. 
Planted together with Mount Everest, 
the contrast is striking. 35c. 
DWARF ASTERS 
DWARF —They are neat of habit, the 
foliage is attractive, and in the blooming 
season in September and October, there 
are literally hundreds of blooms in the 
most delicate shades of lavender, pink, 
and lilac. They are truly dwarf, rarely 
exceeding one foot in height, perfectly 
hardy, and especially valuable for the 
rock garden, coming at a time when the 
rock garden is void of flowers. 
COUNTESS OF DUDLEY — Lovely 
blooms of luminous pink, with bright yel¬ 
low eye. Unusually free flowering, bushy 
habit. Late September. 9 inches. 
VICTOR —The dwarfest of all and ex¬ 
ceedingly pretty. Flowers are large and 
of a beautiful clear lavender-blue. An 
especially fine rock plant. 
COLUMBINE 
Delicate flowers in many colors. Long 
spurred. June and July. 24 inches. 
COREOPSIS 
Large, brilliant yellow flowers. Stems 
long, graceful. Blooms all summer. 2 feet. 
CORAL BELLS 
Low-growing, tufted plants, which bear 
a profusion of dainty coral-red flowers 
on long, slender stems. Blooms nearly 
all summer. 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
CUSHION, HARDY (Rg.)— A group of 
low-growing Chrysanthemums, forming 
mounds of blooms, reminding one of the 
old-fashioned Azalea. The plants grow 
about 10 or 12 inches high and spread 
2 feet or more. 
BRONZE CUSHION — As the flowers 
first open they are warm rich red bronze, 
then turning to a bronzy yellow with a 
light red center giving a delightful effect. 
Later, lighten to a beautiful golden bronze 
shade. 
PYGMY GOLD —Produces quantities of 
miniature blooms slightly over 1 inch 
across. Color is a clear yellow, remarkable 
for its brilliance and intensity. 
PINK CUSHION — Flowers open to a 
deep orchid pink, then change to a light 
orchid with a creamy center, finally sal¬ 
mon pink with a soft yellow center. Has 
a record of 3,000 flowers the first year. 
Very hardy.
