  <abstract>"Making a Garden of Perennials" by W. C. Egan is a practical guidebook on gardening, published in the early 20th century. This book serves as a resource for amateur gardeners and home-makers who are interested in cultivating perennial plants, emphasizing the importance of these long-lasting blooms in creating a vibrant and enduring garden. Egan provides insights on proper preparation, maintenance, and combinations of perennials to achieve a beautiful flowering habitat.  In this comprehensive guide, Egan details the essential steps necessary for planting and caring for perennial flowers. He discusses crucial topics including soil preparation, mulching, planting combinations, and regular weeding. The book also includes valuable lists of reliable perennial plants categorized by their suitability for different conditions, such as wet or dry soils and shady locations.
