HOUSE AND GARDEN 
July, 1913 
Darwin Tulips, the Grandest of all Tulips 
BULBS 
Imported to Order 
T HEREJUsxno 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 quantities, 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.
