Gentlemen: 
I did receive the Regal lilies, the Mertensia, the Phlox Divarv 
cata, and Fringed Bleeding Heart. These were in excellent condi' 
tion and have done well this summer. 
Tours truly,

Dear Sirs: 
The Lily bulbs I ordered from you reached me this A.M 
To say that I am well pleased with these bulbs would not be 
enough, they reached me in perfect condition and if I do not 
have wonderful success with these I will have only myself to 
blame. Again let me say they are wonderful. 
Respectfully yours, 
G. W. R.

Sirs: Washington, D. C. 
If you could see the sturdy growth from the plants you sent 
us early this spring you could better understand how much we 
prize your stoc\. Though it traveled four times the distance of 
other orders the plants arrived in perfect condition, and you paid 
the transportation. We have struggled with better \nown Isfurs' 
eries because they were closer, but year after year we have been 
ordering from them and loosing plant after plant and paying 
transportation—blaming ourselves—though not being able to tell 
why. Ffow we \now, one tiny sprout limp in dry moss doesn’t 
give us an even brea\ to \eep it alive. We greatly appreciate your 
generous orders. 
T ours very truly, 
F. H. S. 
Spearfish, S. D. 
Gentlemen: 
I received my order from you some wee\s ago, and the fine 
sturdy plants you sent me have already made a wonderful growth. 
I want to than\ you for the extra things you included—they are 
doing well and are much appreciated. 
Tours truly, 
F. K. B.
