ur Catalog ) 
This catalog is made FOR you, BY you. It’s not just our notion 
of what a catalog should be. It is created mainly around the re- 
quests and suggestions of our customers, made over a period of 
years. 


Some of you wanted more cultural directions, and they have 
been constantly added. 

Some wanted more illustrations, and each year more have been 
shown. 

Some wanted more illustrations in full color. These have been 
added, and you have freely expressed your appreciation of them. 
Note the many new ones shown herein, and think of these lovely 
flowers as being in YOUR garden. 
Others have thought it would be helpful if the plants were given 
more detailed descriptions. So we have done that. 




Shrubs and flowering trees are shown herein—solely as a result 
of your demand for them. 

It is our sincere belief that nowhere in the world today can you 
find another nursery catalog that can equal this one, whose offer- 
ings can bring both beauty and thoughts of peace into your life. 



Study its pages carefully. Consult it freely and often for your 
garden wants. Beautiful though the colored pictures may be, they 
are inadequate until you have actually surrounded yourself with 
the REAL flowers.
