1943 SPRING LIST 
Hardy Wild Flowers 
® 
Many wild flowers are the first harbingers of spring. From earliest spring to killing frost there may 
be wild flowers blooming in the garden. They are easily established and will colonize in suitable 
locations. Several varieties are suitable for border and rock garden. Many delight in a woodsy location, 
are attractive among shrubbery, and are ideal for naturalizing. They live year after year and require 
less care than any other flowers. 
Varieties marked (*) do best planted in full shade. Those marked (§) do best in full sun. All others 
thrive in light to moderate shade.
