Before you turn tliese pages you mill uiant 

 to hnoui about a feui essential ttiinys, such as 



TIME OF SHIPMENT, WHEN TO PLANT, TERMS, ETC. 



IRIS will be shipped beginning July 1st and continue through 

 the summer and early fall. Earliest shipments will go to 

 those who simply MUST have the plants early, but it is 

 obviously impossible for us to deliver thousands of orders 

 at the outset. During July and August we will ship con- 

 stantly in the sequence as received. Your success is as- 

 sured if planted any time during this period, but early order- 

 ing is advisable to avoid stock being sold short. 



DAFFODILS will be delivered during September and Octo- 

 ber. That is the proper time to plant them, but orders should 

 be placed as early as possible — they will be filled in ro- 

 tation and some kinds always sell out fast. No bulb orders 

 accepted after October 15th. 



The variety Arctic dominates this scene 

 in our own display garden. Lupines and 

 Columbines lend appropriate contrast. 



We are no longer handling Tulips, Hyacinths, Dutch Iris 

 or Crocus. 



TRANSPORTATION is by prepaid parcel post or express, 

 whichever we deem most expedient. Be sure to state your 

 express office if different from postal address. 



TERMS are cash with the order, either check, draft or 

 money order. We do not advise the enclosure of currency 

 with your order. No C.O.D. shipments — this adds to cost 

 and involves red tape for you and for us. 



WE GUARANTEE all plants and bulbs to be true to name, 

 top quality and size, free from insect pests and disease, 

 and to reach you in a live and healthy condition. If for 

 any reason you are not completely satisfied, please notify 

 us promptly. 



No Shipments Made During the Spring Months. 



This catalog is free to all customers of record over a 

 two-year period, otherwise copies may be obtained 

 for 25c and this amount deducted from first order.
