Catalogue of Bulbs and Flowering Roots 

 for Fall Planting 



MANY of our most beautiful flowers arc 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 head- 

 ings 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 oj 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 Cata- 

 logue. The bulbs will be shipped in 

 proper time for planting. They are 

 ready from August to November, accor- 

 ding 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. In stipulating amounts to be 

 sent for postage, it is understood to 

 apply to the United States only.
