Boddington's "Quality" 



Lily of the Valley 



Lily ot the Valley is among the best known and most po] lular flowers, 

 and is chaste and beautiful for all occasions. I make arrangements 

 for only the best ripened and matured three-year-old pips. 



Neil] crop Lily of Uif Valley should always be frozen before forcing. 



Boddington's "Wedding Bells" brand, being specially selected, 

 is superior for first crop ; will convince the most critical grower of 

 its superiority over brands usually offered, for early forcing, the 

 foliage and flower spike being all that can be desired. $2.00 per 

 100, $17.50 per 1000. $38.00 [ler case ot 2500. 



"Qualit,y" Berlin Pips. For early forcing; strong three-year-old 

 pips ; a really good Valley. $1.75 per 100, $15.00 per 1000, $35.00 per 

 case of 2500. 



Selected Hamburg Pips. Best for late forcing; strong three- 

 year-old, for late winter and spring forcing. $1.60 per 100, $13..50 

 per 1000, $32.00 per case ot 2500. * 



Lily of the Valley From Cold Storage 



I import large quantities of the best grade ot Valley for forcing, 

 which is put in cold storage immediately upon arrival and kept 

 perfectly dormant. These pips can be shipped at any season 

 of the year and can be brought into full flower in three weeks from 

 time of planting without undue forcing, and with foliage. It is 

 better to use this stock up to January, then force the new crop. $2.00 

 per 100, $17.50 per 1000. $38.00 per case of 2500. 



Lily of the Valley Clumps 



Large Clumps of Lily of the Valle.v for outside planting 

 and naturalizing. These clumps will throw from 15 to 20 spikes 

 of flowers. $4.00 per doz.. $25.00 per 100. 



GLADIOLUS COLVILLEI 



(Delivery in October and Novemlter) 



The "Colvillei" section should not be confused with the Ganda- 

 vensis or large-flowering Gladiolus. The "Colvillei" has much 

 more slender spikes and daintier flowers, which are very pretty 

 for cutting and arranging in vases with ferns and other foliage. 

 Florists often plant these in their carnation beds.

FREESIA REFRACTA ALBA 



Of all South African flowering bullis the Freesia is doubtless 

 the best known and most esteemed. The gracefully branched, 

 fragrant flowers are of long duration, and being freely produced 

 are profitable for commercial purposes, and satisfactory to 

 amateurs. If planted early they may be had in bloom by Christ- 

 mas. Plant eight or ten bulbs in a six-inch bulb-pan, covering 

 them one inch. The peculiar habit ot the Freesia, its delicious 

 perfume and great value for cutting, have made this flower 

 immensely popular. doz. 100 1000
