FOREWORD 
Last year this country imported 167 million tulip and 
hyacinth bulbs from Holland. Due to the war in Europe. 
Holland is unable to ship its bulb crop. 
Of all the tulip bulbs which were used in this country, 
only 5% were grown over here, and the majority of those 
bulbs were used by the commercial greenhouses. 
Under these circumstances, we are offering American- 
grown substitutes, such as Daffodils, Dutch Iris, Ranunculus, 
Anemones, Freesias, Amaryllis and many other varieties of 
bulbs. 
Although we have an ample supply at this time, we 
would like to advise you to send in your order early, as our 
growers have repeatedly told us that they are "sold out." 
PLEASE OBSERVE WHEN ORDERING 
PRICES . . . This catalog cancels all previous quotations written or oral.
