PACIFIC GIANT DELPHINIUMS Continued 
NEW CROP READY IN EARLY JULY 
New crop seeds are anticipated by July 15th., and we suggest an 
early booking of your requirments to meet your summer planting sched¬ 
ules. Orders will be booked in strict rotation and shipment made as 
rapidly as seeds arrive from the originator. Huge demand that is to be 
expected on this stock will probably exhaust available seeds from the 
June harvest and late orcering may cause delay for the late harvested 
seeds usually ready in September or October. By all means cover your 
wants in this stock at once for delivery on arrival of new crop seeds-. 
Our offer of this material is of course made subject to our receipt of 
seeds from the originator or his agent.
