BULBS 
N no other class of plants are their such un- 
usual possibilities for satisfaction and enjoy- 
ment as may be found in the spring flowering 
bulbs. They are even more wonderful in their 
latent possibilities than seeds, for stored beneath 
their coverings are not only the vital germ but 
food for their whole sphere of existance—root, 
stem and flower. 
The amateur gardener, due to nature’s efforts 
to insure success, demands no handicap from the 
professional. He has a splendid opportunity to 
enjoy in his own home or garden the exquisite 
beauty and fragrance of the Hyacinth, Narcissus 
or Tulip. Planting is a simple task and they de- 
mand a minimum of care. 
The professional grower or connoisseur rea- 
lizes the ease of culture and from year to year 
may renew his enjoyment by more intimate ac- 
quaintance with the different varieties and spec- 
ies. Each has its point of merit, its individuality 
and reason for being in our list. 
The cost from first to last in specie or in 
labor is almost negligible as compared with the 
satisfaction that is in store. However, the 
measure of your satisfaction and enjoyment will 
largely depend upon the quality of the bulbs you 
plant. We import and offer for sale only the 
best obtainable.
