ROOTS FOR FALL PLANTING bot.. 



Season 1912 



A\Y of our most beautiful flowers are produced from bulbs, and they may be grown indoors in 

 the winter months, when flowers are most appreciated. By successive plantings a constant 

 supply of blooms can be had from December until May. The finest outdoor displays of the 

 early spring months are also from bulbs planted in the autumn. The cultural directions 

 found under the respective headings are worthy of careful attention. 

 Our bulbs are all selected, coming from the- best growers, and should not be confounded with the 

 cheap "case" bulbs sent to this country on speculation, and often sold at auction and otherwise, at very 

 low prices. 



NAME AND ADDRESS. We often receive orders with either the name or the address of the sender omitted. 

 As we can do nothing with such orders, the customer thinks his order is being neglected. We therefore beg our 

 correspondents to be careful to write on each order their name and full address. 



ORDERS should be sent as soon as possible after receipt of this Catalogue, The bulbs will be shipped 

 in proper time for planting. They are ready from August to November, according to the time of ripening and 

 the country from which they come. Orders received earliest are surest of being filled in full. If left too late, 

 the supply of some of the varieties may be exhausted. 



The prices quoted do not include transportation charges, which are extra, 

 be sent for postage, it is understood to apply to the United States only.
