Our close association with the world’s leading producers of Spring Flowering Bulbs, places us in an outstanding position to procure for our 
customers only the first grade top size bulbs. Less than one-quarter of all the bulbs produced are of this high quality. Naturally, the seconds 
and poorer grades also find their way to the market and are offered frequently in competition with our first grade stock. As Spring Flowering 
Bulbs already contain the embryonic flower when they are planted in fall, it stands to reason that the finest high quality flowers can only be 
obtained by planting the first or best grade. 
WHEN TO PLANT BULBS 
In the latitude of New York, Tulips, Crocus, Daffodils, Hyacinths, etc., may be planted outdoors from the early part of October up to as long 
as the ground is open. The indoor cultivation of bulbs may be carried on throughout the winter months. (See the Winter Window Garden on 
Page 24.) Bulbs and roots mature and ripen at different periods during the late summer and autumn, and shipment will be made as follows in 
the absence of contrary instructions. 
Our August shipment includes Lilium Harrisii, Freesias, Roman Hyacinths, Paper White Narcissus and Callas. Our September and October 
Main Shipment includes the general line of bulbs, such as Hyacinths, Tulips, Narcissus, Crocus, Iris, Peonies, Snowdrops, Scillas, etc. Our 
November shipment includes Lily of the Valley, Hardy Lilies, etc.

NEW MAY-FLOWERING TULIP 
World's Fair 
Shown in Colors on Front Cover 
Its debut in America will almost coincide with 
the opening of the portals of America’s great 
World’s Fair in New York. The development of 
this magnificent Tulip has been a stroke of genius, 
for it is in our opinion the outstanding Tulip 
introduction of the year. 
A vigorous plant with rich, healthy foliage, and 
an unusually sturdy stem that holds the massive 
flowers so proudly erect, that it expresses the con- 
sciousness of its beauty. Its color is superb; the 
Lase and lower part of the petals are pure white, 
and the upper part luminous rose-pink. Inside the 
flower is gorgeous rose-pink flowing from a pure 
white center. Its anthers are primrose and the 
stamen apple green. 
It is a gala blossom fitting to represent horti- 
cultural achievement in the gala World’s Fair 
year and worthy of a place of honor in American 
gardens. Stock very limjted—order early.
