VERY plant in this catalogue was col- 
lected or raised by MRS. J. NORMAN 
HENRY, Research Associate of the Depart- 
ment of Botany of the Academy of Natural 
Sciences, Philadelphia and a noted field 
botanist. She has made over 60 plant col- 
lecting trips to various parts of North Amer- 
ica and was recently awarded the Shaeffer 
Memorial Medal for “notable contributions 
to horticulture” by the Pennsylvania Horti- 
cultural Society. 
All the plants have been tested over a 
period of years in her garden at Glad- 
wyne, Pa. and have proved entirely hardy 
in the open there and at the Nurseries in 
Northern Jersey without protection of any 
kind in the winter or any watering in 
summer. 
The proceeds from the sale of these 
plants are donated by Mrs. Henry to the 
American Red Cross. 
Owing to a very limited stock of the varieties listed we cannot 
allow any discount to the trade.
