Perennial Flowers 
In the following list of perennials, we offer the best of modern introductions and the 
best of the old-fashioned varieties, wnich as yet have not been surpassed. 
During the respective blooming seasons, some of the larger varieties must be carefully 
dug balled and burlapped while in full bloom so that they may be moved directly to your 
garden with little set back. There is but a slight increase in cost for this extra care. 
All plants, unless otherwise noted, are heavy field grown clumps. 25c each, 3 for 60c.
