them at that time. For those gardeners we recommend spring planting when you are planting your garden for the season. The 
stock we offer is grown strictly for root production and while our list is limited, still in standard varieties they are a very 
good selection and can be recommended to give fine results. Price: $1.00 per plant, $10.00 per dozen.
