Due to constant inquiries for lectures on “Bulbs,” our hostess and garden 
consultant at “Paradou,” Miss Klasina Mathilda Keessen, has prepared a 
series of talks as follows: 
Illustrated lecture on Holland tulips, their 
history, care, culture and planting. 
Illustrated lecture on lilies — American, 
European and Asiatic—their general land¬ 
scape effect in border and woodland. 
3 
Illustrated lecture on miscellaneous bulbs 
for rock gardens and naturalistic effects. 
Miss Keessen’s splendid knowledge of horticulture gained through her 
study in Holland, where she received a diploma, together with later training 
at Columbia University, has been recognized by garden magazines and news¬ 
papers, both here and abroad, from which she has received repeated requests 
for articles. The distinct and original way in presenting her talks, illustrated 
with color slides, of which we have one of the most outstanding collections in 
the country, has won her acclaim. Her native costume is an added attraction. 
Endorsements have been received from many of the leading garden clubs, 
a few of which w T e list herewith: 
Nathan Hale 
New Milford 
Easthampton 
White Plains 
Shaker Lakes 
Chappaqua 
Louisville 
Trenton 
New York League of 
Business and Professional Women 
If your club is interested, we shall be pleased to give you further informa¬ 
tion upon receipt of your request.
