(ith Apologies to CNone ~ 
For having gone “‘all out’ last fall in promoting “American Bulbs for Amer- 
ican Gardens.” Results are now fully apparent to everyone who planted 
them. Hundreds of our customers reported quality and size of bloom far 
superior to any ever obtained from imported bulbs. 
Inasmuch as garden lovers now realize the all-around excellence of Amer- 
ican and English grown bulbs, we expect a trebled demand and, therefore, 
our advice is to act fast.

Madonna Lilies ; 
The Famous Salonika Strain of 
Madonna Lilies 
It is extremely doubtful that this famous 
English strain would ever have been offered in 
this country were it not for the conflict. The 
flowers are larger and the plants are more pro- 
lific even though the bulbs run a little smaller 
than the regular French Madonna Lilies. They 
do, however, make up in flowering for what the 
bulbs lack in size. $6.00 per doz.; $40.00 per 
100.
