JAMES H. McCALLION, Rhode Island, 1920, writes: “I am sending you the 
list of bulbs selected for our garden this summer, and am afraid you’ll have to tell 
me you really can’t send them to have me believe it. But I want Kunderd bulbs, 
and if I have to wait for them another year, I will, as now that I know the dif¬ 
ference, no others would satisfy.” 
W. G. MAUCI-I, Iowa, 1920, writes: “We wish to thank you again for the 
pleasure which your bulbs have given us. ‘Rosalind’ was simply grand. We might 
add that the entire community has admired your Gladioli; they are to all who see 
them a marvel in floral beauty.” 
JAMES ALLEN, Ontario, 1920, writes: “Last year I was unable ot get any of 
your Gladioli and I am now looking at what I got from elsewhere and am very 
much disappointed at the result. Will you have some for sale this year? I am 
wishful to get my order to you early so as not to be disappointed again.” 
ALBERT DEDE, Antario, 1920, writes: “I sure enjoyed the visit to your farm. 
I took note of many varieties that I must have. I have before me a wonderful 
spike of ‘White Ivory’. ‘Gov. Hanly” is doing fine this year, also ‘Creston’, ‘Kas- 
son’, ‘Nampa’, etc. A surprise this year was ‘Snow Flake’, as beautiful a white 
as I ever saw and a large flower.” 
H. CRAWLEY, Australia, 1920, writes: “I wrote you on the 17th of March 
informing you that Gladioli had arrived safely and were already in bloom. Since 
then several have flowered and I can assure you they are the admiration of all. 
I have exceptionally good blooms on the ‘Tempa’ and ‘Magic’, which two appear 
to be the general favorites among my friends who have seen them. The ‘Tempa’ 
has no less than eight beautiful large blooms out at once. The ‘Ida Van’, ‘Black 
Pansy’ and ‘Estella’ also are greatly admired. They appear to do wonderfully well 
in our climate. I took the blooms to my office (Dept, of Defence, Commonwealth 
of Australia), where there are over 200 at present employed and I can assure you 
there were very few who did not see them. My friends are so much enraptured 
that already I have secured several orders and am giving you preliminary notice 
to reserve for us collections on pages 22, 23, 26 and 27 of your 1919 catalog and 
50 Glory Mixture, also collections on pages 36 and 38 (Primulinus Hybrids). I hope 
to considerably increase this.” 
MRS. JENNIE HEIR, Ill., 1920, writes: “I am an ardent admirer of the 
Kunderd Gladioli and was very much disappointed at not being able to buy any 
from you this year. I am in possession of a few bought last year and they are so 
far superior to any I have that I would like to have more of them.” 
AARON H. LOPIMAN, Minn., 1920, writes: “Personally I think ‘Scarlano’ is 
one of the very best reds in the trade and if in your fields they are doing as well, 
I think it would be a kindness for you to give it more prominence in your catalog, 
so other Glad, lovers will try it. It has large strong spikes with a wonderfully 
beautiful large truss of brilliant scarlet blossoms, well opened and well placed, 
mostly all open at one time.” 
JOHN E. SNELL, Maine, 1920, writes: “I never have found any ‘rogues’ in 
the bulbs bought direct from you.” 
N. W. WARNER, Vermont, 1920, writes: “In years past I have purchased 
Gladioli conns from you. They have proved very satisfactory and ahead of any¬ 
thing procured elsewhere.” 
S. W. ROGERS, Mass., 1919, writes: “I only had six bulbs from you last year, 
but they were so fine I want some more and am sending my order early. $12.50.” 
W. P. WHITE, Ill., 1919, writes: “I found the “Red Amaryllis’ to be the largest 
Gladiolus I have ever grown.” 
WM. A. WILBUR, Mass., 1919, writes: “In the spring I received from you 
some very fine bulbs. They bloomed and we never saw such blossoms. They have 
a beauty all their own.” 
I. L. BAUMGARTNER, Iowa, 1919, writes: “Words fail me in expressing my 
pleasure raising the Ruffled Gladioli which I ordered from you last spring.” 
MRS. E. H. BARNES, Fla., 1919, writes: “Last March I ordered eighteen new 
Ruffled varieties. Each one of the eighteen was a gem and a delight to the eye. 
I shall order more for next spring.”
