FOREWORD 
Again as last year, my catalogue is small and rather incomplete although I had hoped 
to give more lengthy and detailed descriptions this year. With two rather adverse bloom- 
«ing seasons in succession, I am unable to give my usual opinions relative to many of the 
new varieties and the descriptions in most cases have been confined to a few words. 
Although the catalogue is small this year, it does not indicate a small crop of bulbs— 
in reality, a far larger crop of bulbs is a contributing reason for the smaller catalogue. 
At this time I wish to thank all my customers and friends for their patronage of the 
past and although at times I have not been able to thank you personally for each letter 
I have received, they have nevertheless been appreciated. 
Visitors are welcome to my gardens during the blooming season from July to October, 
the most varieties usually being in bloom in August. No business transacted Sundays. 
TERMS: Please send cash or 25% down and the balance may be remitted before 
delivery or the bulbs sent C. O. D. for the remainder. Remittance may be made in money 
order, bank draft, check, or, in the case of small orders in currency or stamps but stamps 
should preferably be sent in 3, 5 cents, and air mail denominations. 
Five bulbs may be purchased at the 10 rate and 25 at the 100 rate unless otherwise 
priced providing such items do not total less than 10 cents. Prices prepaid in the United 
States on orders over $1.00 and elsewhere on orders over $2.50. Orders are preferably' 
held until March 1st except Pacific Coast orders and large wholesale orders; however, 
shipment by express may be made at any time during the winter if the customer wishes 
to pay express. I will pay express on retail orders over $10.00.
