FLOWERS, PLANTS, PERENNIALS 
Our Own Plants 
to be available 
Seeds of many of the Annuals listed here 
are already growing in our greenhouse under 
the expert care of Adam. We will have more 
annual plants this year than ever before. 
Annuals will not be ready before May 15th, 
some perhaps a little later. 
Lined out in nice straight rows are many 
of the more common perennials grown here on 
our grounds from seed. Space does not permit 
listing these strong, field-grown, healthy 
plants but if you are interested in perennials, 
we suggest a trip out to our store where lists 
and illustrations will be provided. Perennial 
plants will be available the latter part of April. 
Vines Often Solve 
Garden Problems 
Vines make beautiful screens for many spots 
on the home grounds. One seedsman so aptly 
calls them ‘‘Garden Draperies.’’ Listed here 
are a few of the better kinds that may be grown 
either from seed or may be set out as plants.

THE PERENNIALS 
Perennial seeds can be started in June in 
wik-fed pots, flats or coldframes. It has been 
our observation that seeds started at this time 
have a better chance of survival because of 
cooler temperatures and due to other activities 
in the garden at that time, they receive more 
attention.
