HARDY FERNS 
To save on transportation costs we suggest that 
you check your needs for Hardy Ferns and place your 
order early end ship by freight. It wll not hurt them 
to freeze and no damage will be done if they are on 
the road up to a month at this time of the year. If 
they are frozen when they arrive, place them in a cool 
place to thaw out, then cover them with a mulch so 
they wll not dry out and you can keep them in @ 
cool place until you are ready to plant them. 
Hardy Ferns are unexcelled for foundation planting 
in shady locations. Planted among the shrubbery and 
in the woodland they add beauty and interest to any 
planting. 
Our lst includes only such species as have been 
found dependable and well adapted to general planting 
conditions and easily grown under cultivation. 

We invite mail order nurseries and Florists selling 
over the counter to get in touch with us for quota- 
tions on collections and bulk quantities. We can 
supply ferns in unl mited numbers.
