SUGGESTIONS AND INVITATION 
So far as the present growing season is concerned, the 
continued wet weather is bound to affect all the crops, and 
bulbs of fine quality will be few. For this reason I would 
advise that orders should be given as early as possible, since 
after the middle of the summer extra-quality bulbs cannot 
be secured in Holland.

The New Gardens. 
It is with pleasure I announce the removal of my offices 
and gardens from Montclair to Little Falls. 
To find the ideal place for a business home, and to have 
there the long-desired garden, have been the strivings of two 
or three years past. To possess both, and besides to have 
even more than I had dreamed of, seems such rare good fortune 
that I am waiting for the first flowers at Mayfair with an 
uneasy feeling that it must be too good to be true.
