Abbreviations of variety, as follows: (C) Cactus; (H. C.) Hybrid Cactus; (D) Decorative 
Instructions for ordering bulbs. Our seed and bulb depart¬ 
ments are entirely separate. By reason of the different types of 
packing required, we believe it to be for the best interest of our 
customers to ship separately. Bulbs as ordered will be forwarded 
subject to weather conditions. The packings or boxes in which 
bulbs are received, should, upon receipt, be opened and unpacked 
at once. The bulbs not needed for immediate planting should be 
spread out thinly in a cool, dry place where they will be safe from 
extreme heat or freezing.
