CATALOGUE OF 



3§ulB@ ? Plants and Seeds, 



Perhaps no better evidence of the horticultural progress we are making in this 

 country can be found, than the fact that every Fall and Winter we are ashed, by numbers 

 of our patrons, for special information on the parlor and window culture of the various 

 kinds of Bulbs and Plants usually grown during the winter mouths. Formerly the 

 inquiries and orders in this direction were few and far between, out of recent years this 

 branch of floriculture has received such an impetus that now, in Winter and early Spring, 

 the windows in thousands of homes are radiant with masses of bloom and foliage, inferior 

 only in extent and beauty to the more pretentious out-door displays of spring and 

 summer-time. 



Culture, of most Bulbs and Plants, we cannot very well give in this Catalogue, in the extended 

 detail required, so, to those seeking instruction, we would suggest reference to Mr. Henderson's " Handbook 

 of Plants." which, particularly on the culture of all Bulbs, is most full and comprehensive. 



Bulbs for Indoors and Out. — "With few exceptions, and they are noted, we can till orders for 

 all Bulbs here catalogued, just as soon as this list reaches customers. The size and quality of Bulbs this 

 year is fully up to the high standard of those sold by us in previous seasons. 



Winter-Flowering Plants. — Tour attention is also called to the fact that the preparation of 

 Plants for this purpose is now a large ami special feature of our business. Our new and improved system 

 of Greenhouses, the largest in this country, has aided us largely in this class of culture, and tended to greatly 

 simplify our work, and enables us to offer a stock of Plants, this Fall, unsurpassed in health and vigor, and 

 at exceedingly reasonable prio
