The cultivation of bulh£, tubers/and. tLjfefcrous rooted 
plants is one of the mosfcr fascinating phnaseis^oT horticul¬ 
ture, and interest is sho^ing'a steacty increase ip recent 
years, both abroad an<yin the Uiatted States. "We have 
made a specialty of th/s c^rss of pr3v &IpnateridTl fQr nearly 
ten years, mostly suns^mpfcaj') and (ropical in it 3 »ture,-< 
but including many hardy'and half 7 hardy iterns, that^are 
suited to the Florida climateT^dWhich are alsor desir¬ 
able for the north, either for o'l^sJoo’rQ^^rdens oiyfas 
greenhouse or conservatory subjects. 
We are always adding to our collection' 
to hear from persons having rare and uncomr 
and related plants for sale or exchange. We haveT^hy 
items in too small quantities to list. If you seek any¬ 
thing not listed, write us your wants and we will give 
you the best information where you may obtain it if we 
do not have it ourselves. 
All our bulbs, etc., are worthwhile horticultural sub¬ 
jects, standard varieties or novelties in the trade, and 
will prove of interest to the beginner or the experienced 
garden lover. Many of them are best handled in a 
greenhouse or conservatory in the north, and a large 
number are adapted to outdoor planting in warm cli¬ 
mates. A few are better handled in pots, North or 
South, and only reasonable care and attention are 
required for the successful culture of them all. 
We guarantee to send our customers good bulbs, 
plants, etc., and will make every effort to have them 
true to name and variety. We will refund money for 
any unsatisfactory items returned within ten days of 
receipt, or replace the same at the buyer’s request. We 
cannot guarantee good results with our material in the 
hands of our customers, because so much depends on 
the skill of the purchaser and the treatment accorded 
the bulbs or plants. 
However, in all modesty we can say that in many 
hundreds of orders over recent years we have had very 
few complaints. We want to please you, and have you 
like our bulbs. We believe that satisfied customers are 
our best advertisements. 
In the discussion of the various subjects we have tried 
to present the essentials of cultural requirements or 
growing conditions which suit the individual plants and 
bulbs best. If you want additional information, write 
us, or by all means refer to Dr. L. H. Bailey’s “Standard 
Cyclopaedia of Horticulture’’ and “Hortus’’. For some 
of the best color plates of various flowering bulbs and 
plants see “The Carden in Color”, published by Mac¬ 
Millan, with notes by Louise Beebe Wilder. This book 
is the best piece of horticultural color printing that has 
yet appeared in America. The plates are from “Carten- 
schoenheit” distinguished German horticultural maga-
