New Novelties for 1938 
Each year hundreds of new varieties, representing the cream of the efforts of the 
world's hybridizers, are placed on the market. For 1938 we have selected those which 
we believe are the best and will have the greatest appeal to discriminating buyers. 
Those who are able to do so, will be well repaid by visiting our gardens next fall to 
see them growing. 
For those who like to grow the newest, we are offering plants of some at originators' 
prices.
