Imported Narcissus, Daffodils and Jonquils 



With the exception of the Polyanthus varieties all are hardy, grow, increase and flower year after year. They may be grown in garden beds or in herba- 

 ceous borders The earlv sorts commence blooming in March and with a selection of mid-season and late flowering kind* an endless succession of bloom may 

 be enioved well into May As cut flowers Narcissus ore especially useful, being of lasting quality and vasing beautifully. The bulbs may be left undisturbed 

 for several years on good loamy soils. Narcissus and Daffodils are also flowered in the greenhouse or window in pots, pans and flats of soil. 



A SPECIAL NOTICE TO DAFFODIL LOVERS 



Everybody loves Daffodils and Narcissus and we, with all others, 

 regret exceedingly the ruling of the Federal Horticultural Board, known 

 as Q LARA XTI XE Xo 37. prohibiting their importation after the 

 present year 



This means that the Federal Horticultural Hoard at Washington, has 

 decided that there is danger of spreading certain plant diseases if the 

 importation of Narcissus and Daffodils is allowed to continue; and the 

 prohibition also extends to certain miscellaneous Bulbs which will be 

 found listed in this catalogue on page 17. The importation of these 

 varieties into the United States is prohibited after December 

 31st, 1925. 



All Bulb Growers and dealers are of the opinion that inspection of 

 imported Bulbs by competent men, would avert all danger of plant 

 infection; and they think that the extreme measures about to be enforced 

 are not necessary 



Daffodils and Narcissus are mostly imported from Holland and 

 already the growers over there have restricted the areas usually set 

 aside for their production next year. This means that an unusually 

 large quantity will be imported into America this year, the last year of 

 grace, and even if it were to come about, that the ban against their 

 importation was raised, there will be a great scarcity for some, years to 

 come, and a great advance in the prices of the Bulbs. 



We therefore advise all of our customers who love Daffodils to 

 order Daffodils, and all the other Bulbs they may require as soon 

 as they receive this catalogue, and we will include the order 

 with ours. ^ 



This will insure to customers who avail themselves of this oppor- 

 tunity, a supply of the "cream" of the various stocks offered, as they 

 are always the first to be disposed of by the growers. 



We will then deliver the Bulbs as soon as they arrive in America 

 this fall.
