FREESIA PURin - improved 



The Freesia Bulbs the American Bulb Co. offers were raised by the finest grower in California. Florists who have grown 

 our Freesia Bui bs have received large returns when they were shipped to the wholesale flower markets. In every case we 

 have received a duplicate order, which was increased over the original order. Florists who have purchased Bulbs from us 

 agree that we handle the finest quality of well matured, ripeiied bulbs. 



We believe we are the largest handlers of high-grade PURITY FSEESIA bulbs in America.- Florists who have not 

 given us a trial will profit by sending us their first order. We know you will re-order from us every season, after enjoying 

 your first successful season with our high-quality bulbs. By early planting they can easily be brought in bloom at Christmas 

 and a continuous blooming season can be maintained by successive plantings. For growing on the side of Carnations or to 

 follow Chrysanthemums, we recommend smaller bulbs. To get good results they should be tied up like Carnations. Do not 

 overlook this fact, as it is important.

Dear Sirs: ^ 



The Freesia Purity you sold me this year were as good as ever. I have found that 1 can alw*ys rely on your 

 Freesia Bulbs. The large ones for early forcing were in for the Holidays as usual. 



The Rainbow Freesias are fine, growing tall, and have very stiff stems. The colors are very fine and sell readily. 



Yours Truly, 



GEORGE C. WEILAND. 



RAINBOW FREESIA 



We can now supply this long waited for, beautifully colored RAINBOW Freesia. They are carefully selected and may be 

 had in the best colors. The better floral shops throughout the country are using these very extensively. $35.00 per 1000. 



SUNSET COLLECTION 



The Sunset Collection of Freesias is long-stemmed, a fine keeper and is much more easily grown than the ordinary type 

 of Freesia. $45.00 per 1000.

Those who are in the market for higrh grade Cyclamen Seed, I wish to 

 advise you that I have perfected the finest strain of Cyclamen Seed I have 

 ever offered, as for the past four years I have devoted my attention to improv-
