WHAT ENTHUSIASTIC CUSTOMERS SAY 
H ere is a letter dated September 18, 1935, received from 
Ralph E. Woodrow of Ohio. It is typical of many letters 
we receive throughout the year. 
Gentlemen: 
Received your shipment of Japa?iese Iris yesterday and 
planted them immediately. If these fail to grow, it will 
not be because they were not good plants. 1 certainly am 
well pleased. 
The Iris received earlier in the season were fine, and 
the Oriental Poppies good. The latter are now coming 
through the ground and I am hoping they will do as well as 
the ones planted last year, as all bloomed but one out of 
the twenty you sent me. 
1 like your stock. Don’t forget to send me your catalog 
for 1936. No order this time. Just a friendly acknowl¬ 
edgment of fine stock. 
A letter dated August 24, 1935, and received from Ella 
M. Bowie of Verdun, Quebec, reads: 
D ear Sirs: 
I thought you perhaps would be interested to know that 
the Iris collection I purchased from you arrived here at 
the end of their long journey in quite good condition, and 
a week after being planted were growing splendidly. They 
were real fine plants and so healthy. I was more than 
pleased with them, and with the value for the money. 
Thank you.
