Last year was no exception to the rule. My bulb business increased handsomely, as 
it has done every year for the past ten. If you have never tried Maule’s Summer 
Flowering Bulbs and Roots, you should have a few in that flower garden of yours this 
year. If you do Iam very sure your garden will never be without them another year.
