Have a Hardy Garden of Your Own
.Next Spring
But you carl have"K hardy garden of
your own. And you can have flowers
blooming in it next spring. All ou
have to (o is to start it now. MZost
of the hardy perennials (that is, the
lants that live out over Winter', and
bloom year after year) can be planted
in the fall just as wel las in spring.
In fact, many expert gardeners prefer
to plant them in the fall. They can
be set out any time up to hard freez
ing weather.
Any fairly good soil, such as you
have been using for annuals or green
iums, will do foioyour hardy flowvrs.
Or you can make the bed or "border"
for your hardy flowers where tliore
is good sod. A narrow bed, along
either side of the walk or drive lead
m g to the house, is almost always
e ective and pretty. A couple of
hours work will prepare a good sized
bed.
Don't Wait Until You Can Get a
Whole Collection to Slart With
One reason why some folks never
get a hardy garden started is because
they keep putting off making a start
until they can get a complete collec
tion.
The easiest way, and really the best
way, is to start with a few things andI
keep adding to the list as opporunity
offers. Almost anybody can get a
dozen or two different things to make
a beginning that wil lgive a very
creditable show of flowers during the
first season. Sonic of these things
you can secure from your neighbors.
Any of them you can get at a very
small cost from some nearby nursery.
Most perennials, after 'hey have
been growing in one place for a few
years, will continue to give more and
bigger flowers if they are taken up
and the "clumps" of roots separated
into a number of pieces, and replant
ed. The.se pieces or "divisions," as
they are called, therefore. are usally
easy to obtain from your flower grow
ing friends.
In getting plants in this way, the
roots should be kept out of the ground
as short a time as possible, and pro
tected from sun and wind by pieces
of wet bagging while being handled.
The divisions for replanting should
not be left too large-a clunip or a
section of a plant with a few strong
buds will give much better results
than a large clump containing several
old roots.
The plants which you get from a
nursery, of course, are husky, young
individual plants which have been
grown as individuals for at least a
season, and these naturally can be
more depended upon to give satisfac
factory results than "divisions" made
from old plants. The latter, howev'er,
nmake a very satisfactory way of get
ting an economical start with your
hardy garden. If they are supple
mented by some of thec newer varie
ties from the nursery, a very fine
showing can be had, even the first
season, for an outlay of a very few
dollars.
Somethings You Can Plant Now
Wiile the list of good dependable
har<dy plants is very long ,it is well
-to start your garden with the old1 re
liable standbys such as pllox, peonigs
and hris. In selecting these, othlaini,
if possible, two or three dlifferenit
types of each, so that the season of
bloom wvill be made as long as possi
ble. You wvill find the dlifferent types
dlescribed in any of the fall nurser'y
catalogues or in the lists carried by
agents. It is by no means necessary
to get one of the newer varieties, as
many of the older ones are just as
beautiful, and are less expensive to
make a start wvith. Of course, after
your collection gets bigger, you wvil
naturally want some of the nmew thimigs
in order to hh\ve a greater variety.
T1he most important of all our Amer
ican hardly perennials and, in the
opimion of many, the most indispen
sable of all plerenials for the hardy
border, are the membllers of the p)hlox
family. By careful selection of theI
variieties from the dIifferent species,
they may lbe had in bloom continually
from ejuite early in the season until
frost. Tlhere is a widle range of colors
practical freedom from diseases or
mnsect enem ies, and the flowers of
many varieties ai-e fragrant.
Tin addition to the ph lox, peonies
and iris, you will wa~nt some oif the

Ilow to Prepare the Soil for Plantinmg
-As to the locatioii of the bedl or'
border where the hai dy flowers are to
be lalnted, the soil should be in fair
ly good condition and the location
such that no surface wvater wvill stand
on the bed durinig the winter amonths.
