Ontario, Can.\da, Feb. 28, 1921. 

 For some years now I have been in the habit of buying 

 a little nursery stock from you each year and look 

 forward toward seeing your catalogue with considerable 

 interest. In bringing out new varieties of small fruits, 

 I have found you to be the foremost nurseryman I have 

 ever dealt with. I would appreciate it very much if 

 you would send me a catalogue as soon as you can as 

 I would like to give you an order. 



Yours sincerely, 



Ed. Lowden. 



AQUILEGIA. Columbine 



Old-time favorites by reason of their unique- 

 ly formed flowers, held so gracefully on long, 

 slender stems and the fact that they flower 

 for a long period during late spring and 

 through the summer. They are of the easiest 

 culture, thriving upon all soils, even though 

 wet and shaded.
