 similar to sorts we are listing so we mix them with other choice lots, many of which are high

 would cost many times wKat we are charging if bought outside of this mixture. We know 

 this to be the best mixture you can buy, assuring a wide range of colors from the richest red to 

 the most delicate white and pastel shades, and offer these bulbs at very moderate prices.
