Hardy Perennial Plants 
The perennial bed or border is truly a “thing of beauty and 
a joy forever.’’ What home-planting is complete without these 
bright colored flowers? Even if one cannot afford an extensive 
planting a small selection will contribute a luxuriance of 
bloom. Plant perennials for permanent beauty and for cutting. 
Plants suitable for Borders are marked “B”’; Border and Cut- 
ting ““B-C’’; Cutting “C’’; Rock Garden ‘“’R”; Border and Rockery 
“B-R”; Best Location “L’”; Month—Season of Blooming.
