In releasing three new seedlings, we wish to say they have been under obser¬ 
vation for four years and should be well established. With us they are very out- 
standing in their respective classes. All of them multiply fast enough to become 
a commercial and are healthy bulbs. It is with much hesitation that we release 
a new seedling, no matter how good the performance. 
In going to the various parts of the world with varying climates and latitudes 
much difference in performance may be expected. Especially the first and even 
the second and third years. 
Some new ones will perform great most anywhere grown, the first year. 
Others will not. However, any one who feels they are not satisfied with any 
new variety we release mav exchange it for any bulbs we list.
