SELECT LIST OF BULBS AND PERENNIALS 

 IMPORTANT NOTICE 



Bulb and Perennial Department. Having made arrange- 

 ments with one of the largest Peony and Iris nurseries in 

 the United States to furnish the bulbs and plants listed on 

 pages 43-51. inclusive, we are prepared to give you splendid 

 expert service, better than if we grew the stock ourselves. 

 They grow over 200 varieties of Peonies, and nearly as many 

 sorts of Iris, and if you should desire others not in our 

 list we will make quotations. Orders from these pages will 

 be sent separate from seeds or other plants. 



There will be a shortage of perennial plant stocks, also 

 a slight advance in price. Can't supply Dielytra (Bleeding 

 Heart) and a number of other plants which are taken out 

 of the list. 



We will do our best to fill all orders, but reserve the right 

 to substitute late in the season when stocks are running 

 low. 



Time Limit. Peonies and Phlox cannot be sent later than 

 about May 1; Iris, May 15; Miscellaneous Perennials. May 

 15; Cannas, Dahlias and Gladioli, June 1. Late orders for 

 these should be in our hands at least a week before the 

 dates given. We are also prepared to make fall delivery of 

 Peonies. Phlox, Iris and the miscellaneous Perennials men- 

 tioned on page 46. 



Deliveries. Unless otherwise requested, orders received 

 before April 1st will be placed on file to be sent as soon 

 thereafter as possible. Orders received after April 1st will 

 be attended to in rotation as promptly as possible. Fall 

 deliveries may be made from September till frost, but it is 

 well to set out Iris in the early fall. Orders received too 

 late for spring delivery will be held until fall. 



Guaranty. Only No. 1 stock, well packed, will be sent, 

 and we guarantee it to reach you in prime condition. If not 

 all right, please notify us within one week of receipt. 



Postage. Prepaid in U. S. Canadian and foreign custo- 

 mers must add 10 per cent of amount of order for postage.
