We specialize in the better and unusual varieties. We are constantly 
adding to our collection and have many recent introductions in quantities 
too small to list. 
In addition to the stock from our own nursery listed herein, we are 
glad to furnish seeds, bulbs, roses, shrubs and perennials: also supplies 
and equipment; in fact, anything for a garden. Customers placing such 
orders with us pay no more than if bought by them direct from our source 
of supply. Our effort is to provide the lowest priced stock consistent with 
quality and the advantage of our knowledge of growers and specialists is 
made available to our customers.
