... for the fine reception you have given the Ball Plant Department the 
past year—its first. We are pleased to announce that the number and size 
of orders received far exceeded expectations. 
It is our earnest desire to serve you well. We sincerely hope you will 
give us an opportunity to do so by favoring us with additional business 
in 1942. 
For growers whose needs in specialty lines are limited, the tendency to 
buy young stock is a sound and economic one, for the overhead costs ona 
few hundred are usually much greater than when produced as a specialty. 
. . on Azaleas, Begonias, Hydrangeas, Poinsettias, Roses and similar 
items for greenhouse growers. Let us supply your needs for high quality 
stock. 
Also send us your list of wanted bulbs. We will reserve them for you and 
write for your confirmation when prices are established. 
MUM AND CARNATION CATALOG. Listing all the new and stand- 
ard varieties—plus valuable cultural information. Send for your copy. 
PERENNIALS — for fine cut flowers. Florists are becoming more con- - 
scious every day of the great value of perennials in the production of attrac- 
tive, original and definitely novel summer pieces. While many spend long 
hours searching for flowers suitable, and generally find that they must 
reduce the quality of their pieces because of the lack of fine flowers, the 
progressive, wide-awake florist is turning out quality pieces with fine 
perennial flowers, and doing this easily. Perennial flowers are the 
perfect answer to the summer problem. Of great importance is the fact 
that the hardy plants produce continuous crops through the season for 
many years. Write for illustrated folder.
