Perennial Flowers 
FROM SEED a fascinating and economical way to re- 
stock your flower borders. We carry a full line of fresh seeds of all the 
best perennial flowers and welcome your inquiries. Most perennial 
seed is slower to germinate than is the annual and requires a little 
more care. Results will justify the extra effort. Generous packets 
run from 10¢ to $1.00. 
HUSKY HARDY PLANTS 
We are delighted to offer heavy clumps of perennial plants 
dug with generous amounts of good black soil from the 
famous GLASTONBURY GARDENS. The combination of 
rich Glastonbury soil and Mrs. Champlin’s skill as a grower 
produces quality plants that cannot be equalled.

Contrary to popular opinion, most perennials may be 
moved (when dug as these are) at ANY season. We stock 
these plants as they come into bloom. Hence, you may 
know exactly what you are buying. With careful planting 
and copious watering, there will be no setback. 
Visit us throughout the season to see these plants in their 
fine rich colors from our initial display of huge velvet pan- 
sies through painted daisies, handsome delphinium, Oriental 
poppies, and showy 
phlox; to the rich 
autumn colors of the 
chrysanthemums which 
close the flowering sea- 
son.
