Wayside Gardens 
— MENTOR, OHIO Wayside’s Handbook 
Thousands of Americans have discovered the pleasure of owning and working in 
their garden, taking great pride in watching things grow which they planted 
themselves. The enjoyment and relaxation is as great as the outdoor exercise is 
mild and pleasant. 


But hundreds of these flower-lovers have written us that they have but little 
knowledge of growing flowers, what plants to buy and how to care for them 
afterward. They have called on us for help which we have cheerfully given. 
However, along with these requests for aid have come highly valuable and important suggestions 
from experienced private and professional gardeners as to how our catalogue might be improved. 
These suggestions are of great benefit to the uninitiated as well as the gardener of experience. 
‘Thus has the Wayside Gardens Catalogue grown into a valuable and costly reference book. 
This beautiful book is the very finest that skilled printers and artists can produce. This is the 
reason why we ask everyone to enclose 25c with their request for this attractive Handbook. This 
small sum barely covers the cost of postage and handling, and does not cover the expense of com- 
piling and printing the vast amount of valuable floral knowledge it contains.
