PRIZE WINNING FLOWERS 
It is thirty two years ago this spring when we here at this Nursery first began growing plants and 
bulbs for our friends and customers. We have always insisted that it pays to get the best when you are 
growing bulbs and flowers. For 32 years it has ben, our ambition to see to it that you receive from 
us only the very best plant material iVisinaule anywhere. That we have succeeded in a small measure 
at least in realizing our ambition is born out by the hundreds of fine letters we have received, thanking 
us for the wonderful flowers our good customers are growing from plants and bulbs that they received 
from us. 
We are growers and not jobbers, and with very few exceptions sell only the stock we grow. Selling 
direct as we do we are able to give you better stock at prices which are consistently low for the quality 
of the stock we send out. 
Starting on a twelve acre piece of ground thirty two years ago, we have gradually increased our 
plantings until today we operate over a hundred acres. 
The location of our Nursery at Winona is especially favorable. The soil conditions of the Mississippi 
Valley are ideal. It helps us produce vigorous plants and bulbs which will thrive and do well in prac- 
tically any location in the U. S. The plants have to be hardy to withstand a climate which varies from 
30 degrees below in the winter to 100 degrees in the shade in the summer such as we have here. These 
conditions and the fact that we always try to please our customers are largely responsible for the excellent 
success flower lovers in all parts of the country have with Pfeiffer’s Prize-winning Quality stock. If 
you are not a Pfeiffer Customer won’t you give us a trial order this spring?

HOLLYHOCKS 
We have an extra fine lot of strong 
field grown Double Hollyhock plants in 
storage, that can be shipped out any 
time. We plant only the best of seed, 
but as the colors do not always come 
entirely true to name, we cannot guar- 
antee them to color, although over 90% 
should come true.

The following varieties of Hardy Lilies are the 

——— 
Dicentra Spectabilis 
This old-fashioned 
flower is still a favorite 
with everyone. Its long 
racemes of graceful, 
heart-shaped, pink flow- 
ers are always attractive. 
It blooms early, and here 
in Minnesota is always 
in bloom for Memorial 
Day. It is equally effec- 
tive as a cut flower or a 
border plant, and after 
the flowers are gone, the 
cut-leafed foliage lends 
a pleasing effect in the 
perennial planting.
