SERIES B 
Prices quoted are for large divisions (Lw D.) of at least 
three to five buds and one-year (1 yr.) clumps. 
Two-year clumps, add 50% to the one-year price. 
Three-year clumps at double the price of one-year 
clumps. 
The large divisions are very strong plants that should 
all bloom soon but, of course, the larger sized clump will 
give a quicker effect. 
In this series we have grouped together the newest and 
finest varieties which we have been able to obtain in this 
country and in Europe. We grow and test many varieties 
and those which we consider have merit are propagated 
and offered for sale. As stocks increase the prices are 
lowered as much as possible, consistent with the size and 
quality of the roots.
