Excerpt from Hardy Perennials and Herbaceous Borders: Illustrated in Colour The time is past when the term hardy plants can be used indiscriminately. Alpine owers and hardy herbaceous plants have both developed enormously, and their culture has become speci alised on differing lines. It is true that Alpines are sometimes admitted to the border, often to furnish a rocky edging; and conversely, certain hardy herbaceous perennials are occasionally used in the rock garden; but those who know most about gardening will be the first to agree that it is desirable to consider them as separate sections.
