ORDER EARLY 
Orders are shipped out at the proper planting time in your locality. Early 
orders get first attention during shipping season, so it is important to order 
early. 
IMPORTANT NOTICE 
We do not ship tropical lilies in the latitude of New York, 
Cleveland and Chicago until after the first of June because earlier 
planting in this latitude is not safe. If you instruct us to ship 
earlier than this, shipment is made only at customer’s risk. Of 
course, for planting south of the above given latitude, shipments 
go earlier. 
Your pool need not be drained to plant tropicals. It is better to 
plant them in the warm water that has stood in the pool. Fresh 
cold water is liable to chill the lilies.
