THE EARLY GARDEN: (18 feet long and 5 feet wide. 
Plants were so chosen as to create two distinct mass bloom effects. During May and June, Iris, early Ver- 
onica, Clove Pinks, and Lemon Lilies create a colorful effect, to be followed in July by a gorgeous lot of 
color largely created by perennial Phlox supported by Statice, Silver Artemisia, and summer blooming Ver- 
onica. This color lasts well into September. The varieties we have selected are easily grown and will in- 
crease in size each season and are up-to-date kinds. By repeating this planting, the border can be made 
36 feet long. Repeating is done by professionals and produces a fine result. 
THE LATE GARDEN: (18 feet long and 5 feet wide.) ise 
Here again there are two “‘peak’’ bloom periods. The first one in June and July when Delphiniums, Lilies, 
and Oenothera are at their best. The second or autumn display is made largely by hardy Asters both tall 
and dwarf, at their best throughout September and October. In selecting the varieties for this garden 
we have chosen the best of easy culture and fine clear colors. 
In the Early Garden we show pink Lupines. If Lupines do not grow well in your locality, we will send in 
their place the yellow Thermopsis Caroliniana, if advised to do so.
