When You Think of Fine Perennials — Thanks, for Thinking of . . . 
America’s Leading Source For Fine Perennials Where 
Good Plants and Good Friends Get Together — 
Dear Friends: — 
At least twice each year we donate a small part of our book to a 
personal expression of gratitude to our close friends, our customers. We 
appreciate, most of all, the many kind letters we receive from you compli- 
menting us on the good variety and fine quality of the plant material that 
we handle. All we can say is that we do our best, and we will continue to 
do so in the future. 
This Fall Season looks as if it will be every bit as good as the past 
Spring. Our advance bookings have been heavier than usual, and all of 
the people that we have talked to in the business seem to have a general 
note of optimism about them. May we suggest that you order early, because 
many items will probably be in short supply. 
For this Fall, we ask that you consider such things as Hardy Phlox, 
Cottage Carnations, Peonies, Artemesia Silver Mound, Hardy Asters, Shasta 
Daisies, Daphne Cneorum, Dianthus, Liatris, Poppies, Golden Vicari Privet, 
Sedums, Tritoma, Teucrium, and the finest and best list of Hardy Chrysan- 
themums in the trade today. 
Thanks again, for all that you have done, and we look forward to 
hearing from you soon. 
Sincerely, 
THE JOSEPH F. MARTIN CO;, Inc:
