SEED CROP OF 1949, NATIVE PLANTS 
of the High Plains, Badlands and Black Hills 
A select list containing new and choice items, 
kinds that are accustomed to more frequent de- 
ficiencies of moisture than to excesses, that for 
their own welfare choose well drained soils and 
situations. 
Winter planting of most Great Plains seeds— 
nature’s way—or refrigeration treatment, is ad- 
vised. Penstemons and various others are most 
certain with months of freezing. 
For culture please refer to our plant catalog, 
issued in the spring.
