Cape Cod 
Bulblets 
While we guarantee to satisfy our customers if it is possible, it must be understood that 
WE DO NOT GUARANTEE BULBLETS TO GROW. The bulblets of some varieties are hard to 
germinate and they need good care to get the best results. Bulblets are cheaper than bulbs 
because they are not so sure to grow. It is a cheap way to get a start, especially in the new 
introductions, but we want our customers to be sure they understand clearly that they must 
not expect us to replace them if they do not germinate. Of course a big per cent usually will 
grow anyway but if they are valuable ones, and are cracked before planting, and then kept well 
watered, the per cent that grow will be much increased. While we will always select the 
largest bulblets available of the ordered variety, you must remember that some varieties never 
make large bulblets; others always make bulblets long and narrow, from the shape of a kernel 
of wheat to that of an oat.
