IMPORTANT NOTICE 
FOR 
Owners of Gardens and Amateurs. 
ERFURT, the capital of Thuringia, so well known for its historical associations, has been 
famous for centuries on account of its horticulture ; it is called the ‘‘ City of Flowers.’’ Seeds 
harvested there—if sown on English soil—produce marvellous results, as is proved by 
innumerable letters from my English customers, and by the many first prizes obtained by 
them at flower-shows. A richly illustrated English Catalogue (with full particulars) will be 
sent, free of charge, to anyone referring to this Journal. You will be astonished by the low 
prices as well as the good quality. Even the smallest quantities are sent post-free. Official 
post-cards to Germany, ld. ; letters, 23d.
