VAUGHAN'S "LONDON MARKET" VALLEY. 



SPIRAEA. 



I 



We are very careful to import good large Spiraea clumps 

 which have large, plump eyes, as these are the only kind that 

 will give satisfaction when forced. 



NEW PINK SPIRAEA, QUEEN ALEXANDRA. 



' Entirely new departure in Spiraeas introduced three years 

 ago for the first time. Of a clear pink color with dense com- 

 pact spikes, the plants are most attractive and equally as strong 

 and vigorous as the white varieties. One of the most inter- 

 esting novelties of recent years. Per doz., $2.00; per 100, $12.00. 



J In New York, per doz., $1.80; per 100, $11.50. 



[ ASTILBOIDES FLORIBUNDA.— New, strong and more de- 

 veloped than the common Astilboides, from which it is a sport, 

 produces large, pure white plumes and is unquestionably one of 

 the best Spiraeas. Per doz., 90c; 100, $6.50; in New York, doz., 

 85c; 100, $6.00. 



ASTILBOIDES SUPERBE.— A splendid new variety which 

 makes a beautiful shaped plant with abundant flowers (20 to 30 

 on a good plant) on strong stalks. Per doz., 95c; 100, $7.00; in 

 New York, doz., 90c; per 100, $6.50. 



BLONDIN.— One of the best varieties for Easter. Per doz., 

 I 90c; 100, $6.50; in New York, doz., 85c; 100, $6.00. 



j I COMPACTA MULTIFLORA.— Grows from 6 to 10 inches in 

 height, and produces larger and finer plumes than Japonica. It 

 is about two weeks earlier. Per doz., 85c; 100, $6.00; in New 

 York, doz., 75c; 100, $5.50. 



GLADSTONE.— Without question one of the best "Spiraea" 

 on the market. Make a healthy, vigorous plant with spikes of 

 flower borne well above the foliage. Order early, as supply for 

 past 2 years has been very short. Per doz., $1.30; 100, $9.00; 

 in New York, doz., $1.25; 100, $8.50. 



JAPONICA.— Extra strong clumps. Per doz., 75c; 100, $5.00; 

 in New York, doz., 65c; 100, $4.50. 



Auburn, Wash.— The first lot of Valley, planted April 1st, 

 is just coming into bloom, and would like to say that these are 

 the finest we have ever grown.

r ILY OF THE VALLEY. 



In packing and grading the Lily of the Valley Pips 

 for our trade, pips of one type and style of growth, 

 raised on the same soil, will be branded separately so 

 that the customer receiving a certain number and brand 

 from us and forcing it to his satisfaction can depend 

 on the same grade right along until sold out and will 

 be advised by us when the grade is changed. This we 

 believe will be much more satisfactory to the forcer 

 than the former indiscriminate method of delivering all 

 kinds and shapes of Valley under one brand, the planter 

 never knowing what kind of a pip would open up in the 

 ne.xt case received. 



VAUGHAN'S LONDON MARKET BRAND. 



W'e intrt'dnced this select forcing pip to our Florist 

 cu-inmers some years ago and it has given excellent 

 s.itijfaction. The pips are large and plump with long 

 fibrous roots. There is but one "London Market" qual- 

 itv and we control the selected pips of the entire crop, 

 which is limited. Per 100, $1.75; per 1,000, $14.00; per 

 case of 2,500, $34.40; per 5,000, $67.50. 



PREMIUM BRAND. 



This is a high grade pip for late forcing and should 

 not be compared with regular Hamburg stock offered 

 at much lower prices. Per 100, $1.50; per 1,000, $12.00; 

 per case of 2,500, $29.40; per 5,000, $57.50. 



INTERNATIONAL BRAND. 



This is a good every day forcing Valley Pip, Hamburg 

 grown, first size. Per 100, $1.25; per 1,000, $10.00; per case of 

 2,500, $24.40; per 5,000, $47.00.

 foliage. 



When orders are placed with us for cold storage stock, we

 produce the pips if same have been destroyed by fire or any 

 other cause beyond our control. We accept no responsibility 

 whatsoever for results in forcing.
