HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 
FOR SEASON 1956 
All wild flowers in this list have been grown 
from seed, division, or cuttings. All are grown 
under ordinary nursery conditions exactly like any 
other perennials. Those loving shade are grown 
under lattice. Some, like trailing arbutus, twinflower 
and dwarf cornell are grown in containers in order 
that the root system will be less disturbed in moving. 
Collected plants do not have the compact root system 
of the nursery grown plant. 
All orders will be filled with freshly dug plants. 
We guarantee all plants to be true to name. 
Errors made by us will be gladly rectified if given 
proper notice. If any plants are found to be mis- 
named, we will replace them the next planting season 
or the original price will be refunded. 
A certificate of inspection is attached to each 
shipment. 
Five of one variety may be purchased for the 
price of four. We will quote quantity rates to gar- 
deners or landscaps architects who wish to buy in 
quantity for landscaping or naturalizing. Michigan 
residents add 3% sales tax.
