“HARDY or - OUTDOOR FERNS 
Hardy Ferns do well in shady and half-shady places and 
are useful for growing close to houses, in corners which are 
too dark for most plants. Ferns do best in light soils con- 
taining much vegetable matter, so it is always best to work 
leaf mould into the soil of a fern bed. They are easy to 
grow. We have a fine assortment, and sell them in a fine 
mixture of varieties at 
(3 for 90c) (6 for $1.65)
