FOREWORD 
I TAKE great pleasure in presenting this cata- 
logue to my customers and friends. I do not 
list a large collection, but such varieties that have 
been selected for their superiority in color, per- 
fection of form, length and stiffness of stem, con- 
tinuous blooming, etc. In the following selection 
the public taste is well satisfied. I aim to give 
prompt and careful (attention. Prices are for 
divided field grown roots, pot grown bulbs or 
green plants. Either kind will give equally good 
results. Many experienced growers prefer green 
plants.
