HARDY PERENNIALS 
Price: 40c per plant, $4.00 per dozen, $25.00 per 100, except where noted 
Varieties starred (*) are suitable for Rock Garden. Varieties daggered (ft) are suitable for Cut Flowers. 
Flowers from early May until heavy frost late in the season will be your reward if you plant Perennials this spring. All that is 
required for this to be yours is a well drained location where you have sun at least three hours a day. Dainty Phlox Divaricata, 
golden Doronicums, Bleeding Hearts, Columbines, Virginia Bluebells, etc., start the season followed by Delphinium, Hollyhock, 
Canterbury Bells and Baby's Breath, etc., which are then succeeded by the white and yellow Day Lilies, Hardy Phlox, Carna- 
tions, Pinks, Poppies and Kaempferi Iris in the early summer. Then in early September you have the joy of a garden filled with 
such Perennials as Eupatorium, Hardy Asters, Hardy Chrysanthemums, Veronicas, Helenium, etc. 
The advantage of a Perennial is that it can be increased in size each succeeding year as the gardener has time to take care 
of it. Perennials, being extremely hardy, do not require a great deal of care in order to have them give splendid returns.
