PERENNIALS 
We are one of the largest growers of Hardy Perennials and Rock Garden Plants in the United 
States, devoting approximately 100 Acres of overhead irrigation system for the specialized production 
of this type of plant. 

Our variety list is complete. Many new varieties are being included in this list—while we have 
many other varieties in the course of testing for future introduction.Our plants are, except as specified, 
field grown and properly transplanted to give necessary root development for high class landscape plant- 
ing. 
All perennials should be shipped by Express. They are very perishable, and should not be in- 
cluded in a freight shipment. 
RG means adaptability for Rock Garden planting.
