SPECIAL WHOLESALE PRICE LIST 

 for FALL and WINTER, 1916-1917 



CTCLAlfEN: 



We have from year to year been growing 

 these popular winter flowering plants in stead- 

 ily increasing quantities. The demand for 

 them is tuch that our supply of plants, how- 

 ever large it may be, quickly gets exhausted. 



Our methods of cultivation have proved 

 siugularly successful. Our plants are healthy, 

 stocky and strong; the results consequently 

 are invariably satisfactory both to our many 

 customers and to ns. 



As to the selection of colors and strains, 

 we have been more careful than ever to get 

 only the best, as can be seen from the fol- 

 lowing list of international strains, which 

 cai be had either in separate colors or as- 

 sorted. As the orders come in, we pick out 

 the heaviest, best leaved plants of a splen- 

 did stock of about 40,000.
