In buying bulbs it is well to remember that there are several 
grades. In the case of Dutch bulbs of all kinds, and the Nar¬ 
cissi and Iris now mainly grown on the Pacific Coast, the larger 
sized bulbs are always the best. We buy only the finest grades 
to be had. Cheaper offerings made are invariably of small, 
inferior sizes. That it pays to buy the best there can be no 
question. In the case of Liliums in which we specialize there 
are great variations in sizes. For instance, last year we had 
bulbs of regale over 20 inches in circumference which gave 30- 
40 flowers per bulb, but we offer small bulbs only 3-4 inches in 
circumference for those desiring to grow them. Prices are reg¬ 
ulated by the sizes in the case of all Liliums. We urge more 
amateurs to grow lilies from seed. 
We sell bulbs of all kinds in 6s at dozen rate and In 25s and 
50s at 100 rate.
