 Vaughan's 



THESE majestic tulips are without a rival in Spring flowers. Their adaptability 

 to our American climate due to their hardiness and vigor, their stately bearing 

 and exquisite shades make them now the most extensively planted of all spring- 

 flowering bulbs. Planted in beds, in clumps among perennials, or bordering shrubs, 

 their effect in May is beautiful beyond belief. 



During our forty years of dealings in every bulb growing 

 district of the universe we have worked up a successful 

 and reliable business connection, strengthened by periodical 

 visits of a representative, and latterly a yearly visit to the 

 war-burdened bulb districts of Europe. This should satisfy 

 our readers that our efforts to please have been worked 

 to the limit, and proven by our thousands of constant cus- 

 tomers. Last year when many firms disappointed on deliv- 

 eries, Vaughan's Seed Store were there on time, and with full 

 quantities. These are big reasons for placing your order here.

THERE must be a place 

 on your lawn for Lilacs. 

 MOON'S Lilacs are not com- 

 mon Lilacs — they are varied in 

 form and color. They include 

 recent productions of famous 

 hybridizers and old familiar 

 sorts that are most dependable. 



No modern lawn is complete 

 without Lilacs. You need them 

 as individual specimens; in the 

 shrubbery border; in the foliage 

 screen that hides ugly views — 

 they are valuable in nearly every 

 kind of permanent planting. In 

 addition to these indispensable 

 attributes they add a crowning 

 virtue of fragrant blossoms in 

 May — blossoms that are quite as 

 useful for cutting for bouquets as 

 for beautifying the lawn. 



Autumn is the best time to plant 

 Lilacs. Write us about these and 

 the other hardy trees and plants 

 we offer for every place and pur- 

 pose. Send for Catalogue A-3.
