For many years we have carefully developed a real 
Perennial department, testing not only novelties, but 
old varieties, to be sure they will do well with us. 
Some things prefer certain conditions not possible 
here, so we contract with specialists who produce the 
best in those few items, enabling us to offer a collec- 
tion that, for most garden purposes, is complete. 
Quality is not always indicated by size—some per- 
ennials naturally produce small crowns but quality 
plants must have good roots. No storage or pre- 
wrapped plants here—every order is freshly dug to 
insure continuous and vigorous growth. : 
Our guarantee insures against any error—your stock 
will be true-to-name. 
To fully describe each plant in this limited space 
was impractical, so this reference chart was designed 
to help you determine—what, where, and how to use 
perennials. The chart itself is self-explanatory, and 
you will notice the ‘‘flower spectrum” has been used 
to indicate color—intermediate colors and shades are 
signified by careful placement of marking in the color 
columns. 
Because it is impractical to make changes on the 
plate, additional items are enumerated on a separate 
page (105). Whenever items listed in the chart are 
dropped you will be notified. Although such neces- 
sary changes may cause some inconvenience, we have 
been persuaded to continue the use of the chart. 
A separate listing of Ferns (page 106) and Herbs 
(page 107) seemed more convenient, and to conserve 
space the quantity prices are computed on a per- 
centage basis as specified in the chart heading.
