HARDY  PERENNIAL,  ALPINE  and 
ROCK  GARDEN  PLANTS 


We  have  a  special  Perennial  Display  Carton  that  we  can  recommend  very  highly 
to  you.  This  package  is  not  only  suitable  for  counter  and  store  trade  but  also  for  the 
regular  nurserymen  who  find  Perennials  very  perishable  and  hard  to  handle. 

We  have  115  varieties  that  we  are  handling  in  this  manner  and  would  suggest 
you  write  for  our  special  Price  List  and  variety  list  covering  same. 

Our  perennials  are  packed  in  ven¬ 
tilated  “Air  Conditioned”  cartons 
packed  25  plants  per  carton.  (No.  1). 

PLEASE  ORDER  IN 
UNITS  OF  25. 

Each  plant  is  indivi¬ 
dually  wrapped  with 
damp  peat  pressed 
firmly  next  to  the 
roots,  which  need  not 
be  disturbed  in  plant¬ 
ing.  On  the  outside  of 
this  peat  a  descrip¬ 
tive  and  instructive 
selling  wrapper  is 
placed,  giving  c  o  m- 
plete  description  o  f 
plant  with  cultural 
directions. 

ALL  PERENNIALS  ARE  SHIPPED  BY  EXPRESS.  They  are  very  perishable 
and  should  not  be  included  in  a  Freight  shipment  unless  carload. 

The  following  is  a  general  list  of  Perennials  which  come  bare-rooted  suitable  for 
Landscape  and  regular  Nursery  trade. 

The  growing  of  Perennial  and  Alpine  plants  is  a  job  that  one  would  call  that  of 
a  specialist,  taking  considerable  extra  equipment  and  a  knowledge  of  growing  that  is 
very  technical. 

We  have  been  growing  Perennial  in  a  rather  large  way  for  the  last  eight  years, 
and  in  order  to  keep  our  variety  list  up  to  date  we  are  continually  searching  the 
world  over  for  new  plants  and  seeds. 

We  invite  you  to  inspect  our  trial  grounds  where  our  newer  varieties  of  hardy 
plants  are  being  tested  out. 

All  plants  quoted  are  FIELD  GROWN  STOCK  of  such  size  as  most  satisfactory 
for  general  planting. 

Varieties  *  indicates  adaptability  for  rock  plants. 

Color  indicates  bloom;  Month  period  of  blooming  season;  (")  Inches  high  when 
in  bloom;  (')  Feet  high  when  in  bloom.
