Bedding Plants 



The growing of Bedding Plants is one of our important specialties and a department is devoted solely to the 

 production of a superior grade of plants for bedding out. No effort is made to present a comprehensive assort- 

 ment, but the varieties offered will, we believe, include all those of recognized merit for Summer bedding.
