Selected MANDY PERENNIALS 
PERENNIAL PRICES 
35c. each, 3 of a variety for $1.00, 12 of a variety for $3.50, except as noted 
You may not have room for Shade Trees, Evergreens, Shrubs, or even Roses, and still have space 
for Perennials which may be effectively arranged in spaces too limited for other types of Ornamentals. 
_ Perennials also have an important place on the grounds of the average home, the large estate, roade 
side and park. They may be had in various heights from 1 inch to several feet, in numerous shades, 
from the first call of Spring until silenced by chill Winter winds. While they carry over from year to 
year, transplanting and renewing Perennial Beds from time to time is essential to best results. Fur- 
thermore, we like our gardens to be in style and must find space for the new, improved varieties— 
discarding the less desirable ones. Our list of Hardy Perennials is revised from year to year so that 
from the following collection you may choose varieties which will meet all requirements.

Garden Chrysanthemums 
Also known as Hardy Chrysanthemums. However, that does not mean that they are 
absolutely hardy everywhere under all conditions. Even here at Waynesboro we lose 
some of our Chrysanthemums during severe Winters. These garden varieties start bloom- 
ing in August, continuing until freezing weather, supplying color when the garden most 
needs it. There are many varieties, but we attempt to list only the ones we consider most 
suitable for the communities we serve.
