Mr. Richard Diener, Oxnard, Calif. 
Dear Sir: About a year ago we bought some Gerbera 
seeds from you and to tell the truth I expected poor ger¬ 
mination, Gerberas being such a doubtful crop with many 
good growers. I must say that I was astonished at the 
high percentage (probably 90 per cent) of germination. 
Yours truly, 
L. W. DURCHANEK.
