Darwin Tulips, the Grandest of all Tulips 
BULBS 
Imported to Order 
T HERE is no more useful garden material than what are known as 
Dutch Bulbs, Hyacinths, Tulips, Narcissi, Crocus, etc. They give 
for a small outlay of time and money an abundance of flowers in 
the house from December until April, and in the garden almost before 
the snow is off the ground in the spring until the middle of May. These 
Bulbs are grown almost exclusively in Holland, and in enormous quan¬ 
tities, where they are sold at very low prices. Usually, they pass through 
the hands of two dealers, and more than double in price before reaching 
the retail buyer in America. 
If you order from us NOW, you 
save from 20 to 40 per cent. 
in cost, get a superior quality of Bulbs not usually to be obtained at any 
price in this country. Our orders are selected and packed in Holland, 
and are delivered to our customers in the original packages immediately 
upon their arrival from Holland, perfectly fresh and in the best possible 
condition. 
If you wish to take advantage of our very low prices, make out 
your order on this sheet, and mail it at once. Send reference 
(bank or responsible business house) with order and you need not pay 
for the Bulbs until after delivery, or take them, if not of a satisfactory 
quality. Our price-list, the most comprehensive catalogue of Trees, Shrubs, 
Hardy Plants, and Bulbs published, may be had for the asking, but if you 
wait to see it before ordering, you will probably be too late.
