Hardy Perennials 
¥ YARDY perennials are the backbone of the flower garden, for most of them repeat faithfully each 
il year with a minimum of attention. t j ; 
ar Our collection of worthy perennials has been greatly increased during the past year. There is a 
certain fascination in producing them that is enjoyed by the young boys and girls who have been a tre- 
mendous help to us while regular labor is not available. Both the growing and execution of orders is 
light work amidst healthful and pleasant surroundings. We hope our increased efforts will enable you to 
spend many restful hours among your perennial beds and borders. j 
All these perennials are supplied from the nursery rows or coldframes, except certain kinds which 
thrive better when transplanted from pots. None are put in storage, because we know that the results 
achieved are in no way comparable to those attained from handling them in accord with the true 
nurseryman’s method.
