PETER HENDERSON & CO., 35 Cortlandt Street, NEW YORK 



The Flower Show at Henderson's Seed Farm, Teaneck, N. J. 



"The bulb gardens at the Henderson Seed Farm on River road, 

 north of Cedar lane, Teaneck, are open to the public, free. The 

 advertisement in to-day's Hackensack Republican displays a road 

 map showing how to reach the grounds, which were visited last 

 week-end by hundreds of people. 



"Many of the early varieties on view last week have disappeared 

 but. their places have been filled by the late-flowering Tulips," said 

 a representative of Peter Henderson & Co. 



"The kinds now blooming or coming into bloom are Darwin, 

 Cottage, Breeder, Bybloemen, Rembrandt and Parrot Tulips. 



Henderson's 1929 Exhibition 



The International Flower Show was held at the Grand Central 

 Palace. New York City. March 11th lo 15th. A great number of 

 our friends who visited the Show expressed their appreciation of our 

 Exhibit in enthusiastic terms. It occupied a space of 47.5 square feet, 

 and represented an Old English Bulb Garden with a flagstone walk 

 bordered with the choicest bulbous flowers. 



In the foreground, is young Peter Henderson III standing by our 

 newly introduced Tulip named after him, "PETER III." 



"These late tulips are certainly the finest material there is in the 

 gardening world; for every conceivable shade may be found among 

 them except pure blue. Mixed planting of Darwins are popular 

 because of their soft colors; combinations of lavenders, lilacs, mauves 

 and various shades of pink and rose color, being contrasted with 

 scarlets, crimsons and maroons." 



The grounds are open on week days and Sundays and all visitors 

 are welcome
