“Heardy “Perennials 
Hardy perennials are the backbone of every good garden 
and flower border. From the creeping thymes and sweet clove- 
pinks to the stately delphiniums and hollyhocks, and from the 
early spring rock-cress to the gorgeous fall chrysanthemums, 
they offer a long season, wide color range and outstanding 
character. 
We specialize particularly in those perennials which are at 
their best in midsummer—phlox, lemon lilies, balloon flower, 
iris, hardy lilies, etc. When the better annuals are judiciously 
combined with them they produce an all-season picture that is 
a lasting delight. We grow in our greenhouses many thousands 
of the best annuals and bedding plants. 
Many of the lower-growing perennials are particularly suited 
for rock-garden planting. Many taller ones are among the best 
of all flowers for picking. 
All perennials 50c each, $4.20 per dozen, unless otherwise 
noted. Six or more of one variety sold at the dozen rate.
