HARDY PERENNIALS 
In order to conserve paper during war time, we have reduced 
our Perennial list to only the most popular and well known

lhe small-flowered, hardy Pompon Chrysanthemums are becoming very popular again; 
they are the only perfectly hardy ones we have, and give showers of bloom long after 
frost in the Fall. Can be planted only in the Spring.
