ILZr^M PRINCESS VIOLET 5TOCR 



Tlie Princess of Wales is still the leader of all single violets. There is no other variety on the market that 



can compare with it as a commercial violet because it blooms from sept. 15tb to May 1st: every bloom is 



marketable. It has size, it has color, it has length of stem. It has fragrance. It sells when any other 



variety, single or double, can not be given away. The people want it. 



So great is my confidence in this violet that the following Autumn I will devote 80,000 feet of glass to the 



growing of this variety. 



I have about 200,000 nice young divisions now ready to ship at the following prices : 



$2.00 per 100 $15.00 per 1000 500 at 1000 Rates Lots of 5000 at $14.00 per 1000 



Lots of 10,000 $13.00 per 1000

LILIUM HARRISII FOR EARLY FORGING 



We offfr some extra choice Lllium Harrisli which has 

 l>eeii luTown for us from the original pure stock. This is the kind 

 of stmk that you want for the very earliest forcing, as It 

 i.s tile true, original Harrisii. The small sizes — 5-7s and 6-7s — 

 ;ii'e rariicnlarly desirable for this purpose, as they will tlower 

 mure quickly than the larger bulbs. If you want to get a lit- 

 tle of the orlKiiKii. pure Harrisii. try a case or two of this. 

 As our slock of this is limited, we can ofEer only a few cases 

 to a single buyer. If you have been dissatisfied with the 

 Harrisii that you have forced heretofore, try a case or two of 

 this, anil s<'C if it is not more than worth the difference in 

 price over the stock that you have been buying. In order- 

 ing, ask lor the pure selected strain of original Harrisii, which 

 we ofier as follows: 



5 to 7 Inch bulbs, 400 to the case, $17.00 per case 



fi to 7 " •' 350 17.50 •• •■ 



7 to " " 200 18.00 " '• 



'J to n " " 100 18.00 " " 



EASTER COMES EARLY THIS YEAR-MARCH 3Ut 



and a j:HMt many ;,'r(»\vers will want to vip« Harrisii instead 

 of Lftngiilorum so as to be sure to have the plants in tlower 

 in time, as the season Is going to be short for Japan Longl- 

 tlorum. The crop of Harrisii this year is the shortest it has 

 been in years, and in view of the extra demand, we advise 

 those who have not already covered their requirements to 

 lose no time doing so. 



For very earliest forcing— Christmas and later— we recom- 

 mend the pure Harrisii offered above, but for later forcing, 

 for Easter, our customers will find the regtilar stock offered 

 below first-class stock— much better than the average stock 

 usimlly offered. We can quote the regular stock as follows:— 

 (i to 7 inch bulbs. 350 to the case. $14.00 per case 



7 to 'J " " 200 15.00 " ■• 



'J to 11 " " 100 15.00 " "
