STORRS & HARRISON, INC. SPECIAL COLLECTIONS 

PERENNIAL GARDEN COLLECTIONS 
We offer, for spring planting, three (3) collections of Perennial 
Plants. The first is of low growing kinds that are suitable for Rock 
Gardens or for the front of the Perennial Border. The second is 
of plants taller and more bushy in growth which fit in well behind 
the first group in the border or in the larger soil areas in the 
Rockery. The third group consists of tall, broad plants that are 
highly suitable for the background. Great care has been used in 
selecting these groups to assure you of a wide variation in color 
as well as continuity of blooming season. 
In preparing the perennial bed be sure that the soil is well 
broken up. If it is available, a quantity of well rotted barnyard 
manure is highly beneficial. If not, any good compost or humus 
will help. A tablespoonful of steamed bonemeal planted with 
each plant will do wonders. 
Mass planting of individuals is desirable but not a necessity. 
Variety adds to length of blooming season and to color in general. 
The plants we offer are fine ones of the very best size for trans- 
planting and shipping. All are young and full of vigor. 
In each list we show the following: 
First, the name of the plant; second, ultimate height in inches; 
third, its flower color; fourth, its blooming season and fifth, its 
individual price.
