Free Bulbs Quantity Prices, Fall, 1939 
If your order totals $3.00 or 
more, you may select, from Ellis 
Originations, free bulbs to the 
extent of 30% of your order. 
Ellis Originations continue to 
win many ribbons, cups and 
medals. This summer our Wings 
of Song won Grand Champion¬ 
ship in Iowa. Last year it was 
entered five times in New York 
and never beaten. Chief Mult¬ 
nomah entered four times there 
and never failed to place. Golden 
Chimes, and New Era have won 
so often it is getting to be an 
old story. Coral Glow is the 
best in its class. Abe, J. D. 
Sez, Vista Bonita, Royal Pink, 
and several of our others have 
rapidly come to the front as real 
winners, and best cutflowers. 
Ellis Originations on this price 
list have (Ellis) after the name 
of the variety, except in the 
Quantity Prices and there you 
can tell which are Ellis Orig¬ 
inations by comparing with the 
other list. 
This offer is in addition to our 
Blue Ribbon Offer, but does not 
apply to special quotations. If 
you do any exhibiting be sure 
to look into our Blue Ribbon 
Offer. Some growers have won 
$30.00 to $40.00 and even as high 
as $100.00 in free bulbs from us 
on that offer. 
We are anxious to- get Ellis 
Originations distributed as wide¬ 
ly as possible so that other 
growers may see them. We 
don’t do much other advertising 
of them. We simply like to let 
them stand on their own merits. 
Each year we receive a great 
many fine letters concerning 
them, but somehow we never 
find space to print them. Just 
as this goes to press we re¬ 
ceived a letter from the Carmel¬ 
ite Sisters of California telling 
how our orginations stood a 
very severe and unusual test 
when all other varieties failed. 
Yesterday we had a letter from 
a grower stating Ellis Origin¬ 
ations did better for him last 
summer than any other. The 
fine letters we have received 
during the past 15 or 20 years 
would fill volumes. 
Bonneville and Red Roy are 
among the very best keepers as 
cutflowers. Golden Fleece is 
our best cutflower yellow. 
Dorothy Wood, Royal Pink, 
Commodore and Erlicut are very 
early.
