DUTCH AND OTHER HARDY BULBOUS 
PLANTS 
We carry only the highest grade of bulbs purchas¬ 
able no matter whether foreign or American grown. 
In Tulips the highest grade of bulbs obtainable are 
carried, while in Narcissi we handle only what are 
known as “double nosed” bulbs. We cordially invite 
would-be buyers to inspect our stock and note the 
quality as compared with the inferior grades offered 
at prices sometimes a little lower but often much 
higher. 
Virtually all Dutch grown bulbs and domestic nar¬ 
cissi are here by September 15, many of them earlier. 
In the present list a number of obsolete varieties 
have been dropped and superior kinds take their 
places, this is especially true in the Darwin and May 
Flowering sections of Tulips. 
Where orders are required by mail, customers 
should include sufficient in their remittance to cover 
cost of Parcel Post. Large orders are shipped per 
express but can be divided into several packages and 
go per mail when necessary.
