Read What These 
People Say: 
Finest he ever saw! “I have received my 
order of gladioli, and they are the finest I 
ever saw. 1 expect fine results. The tulips 
and peonies that I bought last fall have 
grown splendidly.”—H. T. F., Bangor Me. 
Always perfect! “Your splendid bulbs 
arrived and are planted. Enclosed find 
twenty-five dollars. As always, the stock 
you sent is perfect.”—A. G. W., Galesburg, 
Ill. 
More than delighted! “The bulbs I 
ordered from you are now in bloom in all 
their glory. They are the wonder of all 
who see them. I am more than delighted 
with them, and shall send another order.” 
—M. J. B., Clinton, Ill. 
Beyond expectations! “I must tell you 
what excellent results I have had with the 
bulbs I ordered from you. By Easter, all 
the hyacinths and tulips showed large, 
healthy buds, which have matured far be¬ 
yond all expectation. The quality of bulbs 
offered by you, even in cheaper mixtures, 
far surpasses that often sold at much higher 
prices.”—R. C. A., Kansas City, Mo. 
Admiration of the town! “T want to tell 
you how magnificent my daffodils are. They 
are the admiration of the town, and have 
f iven us untold pleasure. Numbers of my 
riends have asked me to order for them. 
Each daffodil is the size of a teacup. Many 
bulbs have four flowers, and not one has 
failed to produce two.”—G. D. S., Union- 
town, Ala. 
Surpasses tulip beds in city parks! “1 
have a bed of tulips from bulbs purchased 
from you, and I wish you could see it. It 
surpasses anything 1 have seen in the city 
parks. It is the admiration of everyone.”—• 
J. A. D„ Cordell, Okla. 
Nothing short of wonderful! “I have in 
my front window, as the admiration of all 
the passersby, the finest group of tulips ever 
seen in this city. With their gorgeous 
colors, odd shapes and exquisite shades of 
color, they are nothing short of wonderful.” 
—J. A. S., Portland, Me.

European demand curtailed—prices drop 
Heretofore, Holland Bulbs have been eagerly bought up in Euro¬ 
pean markets. This year, the market for bulbs in Europe is 
materially curtailed. The demand is 50% less, and the Dutch 
growers are looking to the American market to take their bulbs. 
The prices have naturally dropped lower than heretofore. 
For years we have ordered bulbs from the Dutch growers. We 
visit Holland frequently and know them personally. Our con¬ 
nections with them are so close that it is possible for us to get 
even lower prices than you can secure elsewhere. 
In our catalog, we explain how we have arranged with them so 
that the bulbs are packed by them and forwarded to you as soon 
as they reach this country. This means that bulbs ordered from 
this catalog now cost you about half what the same high grade 
bulbs would otherwise cost you. 
Direct from specialists 
Our connections abroad make it possible for us to buy bulbs from the best 
specialist of that variety. Every bulb shown in the catalog you get direct 
from growers who have made a life study of the flowers they grow; thus 
you are assured bulbs of the first quality. 
Special prices good only until July 1
