Hardy Perennial and 
Rock Plants 
Perennials include most of the finest flowering plants as well 
as the foundation material for practically every well-planted 
garden. They exist in infinite variety, size, and color, and their 
period of bloom covers the entire season. A well-chosen col- 
lection of perennials provides a great source of garden interest. 
The material we offer is strong, field-grown stock with the 
exception of some varieties which transplant better from pots. 
We strongly advise the purchase of perennials in quantities 
of 3 or more of one kind, since a group of 3 or more plants 
makes a much more striking and effective color mass in the 
garden. Please remember that 6 or more plants of one variety 
may be purchased at the dozen rate. 
Note. — Figures after the description and blooming dates 
represent the approximate height reached by the perennials 
under favorable conditions.
