We wish to lay particular stress upon 
the size and quality of our Bulbs which are 
larger, healthier and better than these usually 
-sold—-for the reason that no expense is spared in 
manuring and cultivating. Experience having 
shown us that bulbs so t eated 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 vitality caused by in- 
sufficient plant food in the soil. While there is 
no crop of bulbs on the island entirely free from 
the disease, yet we have less of it in our helds 
than any other grower. 
WHAT FLORISTS’ THINK 
— Oh 
Henderson’s Easter Lily Bulbs 
“The Bermuda Easter Lily Bulbs I got from you, 
(P. H. & Co.,) are grand. In fact, every person who 
has seen them say they are the best ever seen in this 
part of the country. They are practically free from 
*disease,’”’ LAWRENCE COTTER, Florist.

“T got 100 Harrisii Lily Bulbs from you last year 
and 99 Apter bloomed all: right, they were a nice lot.’

“T have been growing your Harrtsit bulbs for several 
years. Last season I divided my order. placing one- 
half with you and the other half with another promi- 
nent seedsman. Yours were the true Bermuda Har- 
visit, while the others were badly mixed with a worth- 
less variety which grew toenormous height with a very 
small flower, Your half were all of an even size with 
flowers of excellent quality, I had the honor of ha 
ing the finest lilies in Pittsburgh from your bulb 
There were but few of your plants diseased - probably 
50 in the whole batch of 6,000 bulbs. You will have my 
Sull order next season.

“T 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 7s so, 
as this was the first time I got my Harristis from you 
and which will assure you of getting further orders.
