Hardy Perennials aud Keck Plante 

Our stocks of perennials are limited and due to manpower shortages, we 
have been compelled to drop many items. 
On our specialties like Gypsoph- 
ila Bristol Fairy, Bleeding Hearts, Chrysanthemum, Delphinium, Phlox and 
a few other items, we have managed to produce sizable quantities although 
in no way sufficient to meet all demands. 
Throughout we have maintained 
our policy of good quality and soon we hope again to be able to serve you 
as in the past.
