To the Trade: 



We present our list for Autumn delivery. 



In our unsurpassed climate we have every condition fav- 

 orable to the growth of plants and seeds. 



We do not cater to the cheap trade. We only grow the 

 best. Choice seeds, especially varieties that are leading into 

 something newer and better cannot be grown at low prices. 



Our prices are as reasonable as we can afford, and we ask 

 those who wish seeds of the best quality to become our cus- 

 tomers. 



When contract orders are made, special rates are given 

 on quantity. 



Before placing your order for future delivery, get our 

 special quotations. We beg to call the attention of the trade 

 to our exceptionally fine strains of Petunias. 



We are pleased to announce that we were awarded a gold 

 medal for our Petunias exhibited at the Panama-Pacific In- 

 ternational Exposition, 1915.

Testimonials 



(NOTE) — Visiting seedsmen and other judges of fine Petunias state that 

 for texture and variety of color our Petunias are unequaled; the size equal- 

 ing other noted strains. 



"I was thoroughly amazed at the beauty of those Petunias, especially the 

 great yellow-throated ones, and the double ones of such delicate shades." 



LUTHER BURBANK. 



Mr. Fred H. Howard, of Howard & Smith, Los Angeles, Cal., states that 

 they obtained higher per centage of germination from our Petunia seed 

 than from any other they ever grew. 



Testimonial from one of the largest seed firms in Australia: "In the 

 trials the blooms of your Petunias turned out exceptionally well, also the 

 percentage of germination was much better than that of any other strains 

 we stock." 



A New Zealand firm writes: • "We were well pleased with germination and 

 quality of seeds received last year."
