PLANTS TO FOLLOW BULBS 



Plants for Beds 



Repeated requests from my Blue Book customers for bedding 

 plants of the quality of Blue Book bulbs, have led me to arrange 

 with one of ray old-time friends to grow them for me and supply 

 this demand. I guarantee these plants to be of the same high 

 quality as my bulbs, and to those of my customers who wish to 

 continue their bulb beds with annual plants I can heartily 

 recommend any of the following list. 



The plants are shipped by express, charges from the nursery to 

 be paid by the customer.
