TO OUR CUSTOMERS AND FRIENDS: With 
much gratitude, we wish to thank and express 
our greatest appreciation for the generous sup- 
port you have rendered for the past several years 
to help make Carroll Gardens a success. We 
are, indeed, very grateful for this. We take great 
pleasure in presenting you our 1941 catalogue, 
in which we think we list one of America’s finest 
and most up-to-date collection of perennials and 
rock-plants that are not too difficult to grow. We 
also have tried to include some of the world’s 
finest new roses, some of the best and unusual 
varieties of shrubs, evergreens, ete. 
The plants we send out will be as usual, first- 
quality products, and at any time you should 
receive anything from us that is not satisfactory 
to you, we want you to tell us so, because we 
are always ready to correct our mistakes at our 
expense. We are always willing to make any 
reasonable adjustment. 
A CORDIAL INVITATION: Plan to visit our 
gardens this coming year. Our large, formal 
garden is really a glorious sight from early 
spring until late fall. Our new, large rock- 
garden and Lily pool has been very attractive 
this past season, and should be more so this com- 
ing season. Regardless of when you come dur- 
ing the growing season you will always find some 
new, unusual plants of real interest. We have 
close to 2000 varieties of various kinds of flow- 
ers, shrubberies, roses, etc., and each year we 
always try out many novelties.
