From a Few of Our Satisfied Customers 
Watertown, Mass. 
June 28, 1937 
Enclosed is an order for Iris. Regard¬ 
ing my order sent you in April, you will, 
be interested to know how well the plants 
have done. I ordered all the pogo-cyclus 
Iris you list and only three failed to 
bloom. Of the fifteen intermediates 
planted at the same time at least a 
dozen bloomed and most of them had 
several flowers. This speaks very well 
for the strong plants you sent and I am 
very pleased.

Please send me your 1937 catalog. I 
purchased some Peonies from you a few 
years ago and they are beauties every 
year now.

The Iris arrived today and I am going 
to tell you the truth in plain words. 
I have been buying Iris and Peonies for 
the past 16 years, but have never re¬ 
ceived a shipment that was as nice as 
the one you mailed me; and am more 
than grateful to you for the many extras.

I wish to express my appreciation for 
the prompt and courteous service I re¬ 
ceived from you last month, when I sent 
you an order for some Peonies. I was 
very pleased with the condition of the 
plants when they arrived and the clumps 
were healthy and generous as to size. 
I have told my friends of the kind of 
service you give, and no doubt we will 
have further dealings.

Just a few lines to let you know that 
the Iris I got from you last summer 
are blooming now. It surely is a pleasure 
to do business with you and I want you 
to put me on your list to send me your 
new catalog as soon as it is issued. 
New Haven, Conn. 
July 17, 1937 
I thank you for the Iris stock which 
you sent so promptly, and which has 
been in my garden long enough to show 
growth. The rhizomes were, as always 
in my experience with you, well selected 
for size and soundness. In spite of the 
hot weather they arrived in uniformly 
good condition. May I express apprecia¬ 
tion also for your generous inclusion of 
extras and multiple roots. Altogether 
this shipment bears out my expectation 
of competent, generous treatment at 
your hands.
