PELARGONI 
WHOLESALE PRICE 
1938 
IDA HENLEY 
For 25 years we have been growing pelargoniums in quantity for the wholesale trade. Each year 
old varieties are discarded and superseded by newer and better sorts. Our stock is arranged so that 
])ropagation is continuous throughout the year. All our stock is grown in the greenhouse and it is 
especially selected for blooming qualities and freedom from disease. Plants propagated from green¬ 
house stock are siq)erior to those taken from field grown plants. All stock is iierfectly free of white 
fly. With ten houses devoted exclusively to pelargoniums we are the largest growers of this plant 
in America. In 1936 three new houses were built es])ecially for propagating. 
All plants are strong, well rooted, free of white fly and other insec^. Clean stock means a great 
deal to our customers. No expense is sjiared to have our stock healthy and free of fungous diseases. 
Pelargoniums are one of the leading blooming plants for Easter, Mothers’ Day, and Memorial 
Day sales. Some varieties begin blooming early in March and others in A})ril and continue through 
April, May, June and later. 
Many of the better varieties of ])elargoniunis originated with (iarl Faiss in Germany. Growing 
some of his recent varieties and some of the new A merican varieties is strongly advised. Many of 
them will re])lace several of the standard sorts and are far siq)erior to many of these varieties.
