All Perennials are perishable. 
Therefore, express shipments are 
advisable. Upon receipt, plants 
should be immediately unpacked 
and checked. If you are not 
ready to plant them in perma- 
nent places, they should be 
heeled in, in an upright position, 
and the roots kept moist until 
they are planted. This method 

Perennials include most of the finest flowering 
plants as well as the foundation material for prac- 
tically every well planned garden. They exist in 
infinite variety, size, and color, and their period of 
bloom covers the entire season. A well chosen 
collection of perennials provides a great source of 
garden interest. 
The material we offer is strong, field-grown stock 
with the exception of some varieties which trans- 
plant better from pots.
