You may not have room for Shade Trees, Evergreens, Shrubs, or even Roses, but still can use 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, roadside 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. Furthermore, 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 time to time so that from the fol- 
lowing collection you may choose varieties which will meet all requirements.
