 Catalogue for 1905. This is, to our 

 mind, the handsomest bulb catalogui^ 

 ever issued in America. There are nd 

 colored pictures, but the half-tones in 

 which it abounds are works of art, 

 and incomparably beautiful. If a copy 

 of this book could be placed in the 

 hands of everybody how flower lovers 

 would multiply! The frontispiece is 

 a cluster of glorious blooms of the 

 picotee tulip. "Maiden's Blush," G and 

 7 So. Market St., Boston.
