 Tulip Bulbs 



FOR YOUR SPRING GARDEN 



DUTCH BULBS imported specially to our order for 

 STAR ROSE customers 



We asked one of the foremost bulb growers in Holland to reserve 

 for us the largest and finest bulbs he harvested from his fields. We 

 explained to him that we wanted Tulip bulbs that would approach 

 the quality of Star Roses. We requested that in making the selection 

 the grower reserve these large bulbs only from the finest, long- 

 stemmed varieties, the kind you can see at the flower shows. 

 We know that these will be the biggest and best bulbs that you can buy 

 anywhere, and we also know from long experience that bigger bulbs mean 

 bigger flowers. 



All these Tulips will be stately Darwins, charming Cottage or majestic 

 Breeder types that bloom during May in most parts of the country. This will 

 extend the season of bloom in your garden by having the beauty of Tulips set 

 the stage for the unsurpassed beauty of Star Roses. 



Big bulbs cost more to ship from Holland to West Grove. They cost us more 

 to mail to you — two reasons why these bulbs are not usually sold elsewhere. 

 Even so, our price compares favorably with that charged for smaller bulbs. 



For those who can come to West Grove, this explanation is unnecessary, for 

 we know that these huge Tulip bulbs will sell on sight. Orders for bulbs will be 

 filled in rotation, with shipments starting in early October. As bulbs should 

 be planted early, you should order at once. Besides, the supply of these biggest 

 bulbs is limited. That makes it doubly imperative to act today to avoid dis- 

 appointment.
