Xdily of the Valley 
We are aware that the only basis for the building up of a 
volume business in Lily of the Valley is the supplying the 
finest Pips obtainable and with this thought ever in mind, 
we have consistently instructed our European office to pack 
nothing but the best grade. For forcing during the different 
seasons, we have selected the types best adopted and will 
make shipments accordingly unless otherwise specified.

bleeding Hearts 
(Dielytra Spectabilis) 
We have been advocating the more extensive use of this 
beautiful decorative plant for several years and those of our 
customers who have availed themselves of our suggestion 
have profited. It is used extensively as an early Spring pot 
plant and is a fine specialty for St. Valentine's Day. The cut 
sprays are also useful. It is perfectly hardy and makes a 
splendid showing in the perennial border or when planted 
with early bulb stocks. 
Extra Large Clumps . $2.25 $17.00 $160.00 
Medium Size Clumps. 2.00 15.00 140.00 
MONTBRETIAS 
We have been paying special attention to these beautiful 
bulbous plants and have now developed nice stocks in several 
fine varieties covering the usual range of colors. We are sure 
that florists will not go wrong in making a planting, for their 
gracefulness permits of lighter decorations than possible with 
Gladiolus. Many of the varieties produce three and four 
flower stems to each bulb, thus reducing the cost per flower 
to a nominal sum.
