We wish to lay particular stress upon 
the size and quality of our Bulbs which are 
larger, healthier and better than those usually 
sold—-for the reason that no expense is spared in 
manuring and cultivating. Experience having 
shown us that bulbs so treated are incOmparably 
superior to bulbs grown on impoverished and 
unfertilized land year after year, which constitu- 
tionally weakens the bulbs and they give results 
accordingly. This is the general practice—es- 
pecially among those who endeavor to grow 
cheaply—to enable them to undersell. 
The so-called Bermuda Lily disease is primar- 
ily the result of reduced col by in-

years. Last season I divided my order, placing one- 
half with you and the other half with another promi-

visti, while the others were badly mixed with a worth- 
less variety which grew toenormous height with a very 
small flower. Vour half were all of an even size with 
lowers of excellent quality. I had the honor of hav- 
ing the finest liliesyin Pittsburgh from your bulbs. Narrow-leaved, early and

These make novel and elegant specimens as pot 
plants when well grown, and are particularly 
beautiful for Baster decoration on account of the 
foliage being distinctly striped with silvery white; 
in all other respects the plants and flowers are the 
same as Lilium Longiflorum,

“I do not hesitate to say that the lot of Harrisit I 
bought from you this season are the best I received for 
a number of years. They are the nicest looking plants 
that I have seen anywhere, and lam glad that tt ts so, 
as this was the first time I got my Harristis from you 
and which will assure you of getting further orders.
