Our Evidence of Universal Satisfaction . . . 
Not what we say, but what others say, voluntarily. Thousands of our friends take the time and trouble 
to write us from all over the world. Here are a few of their letters. If you think that you can not have 
beautiful results—just read these letters from amateurs and beginners. They show the high quality 
of our plants—how easy it is to succeed with them and that they ‘‘go and grow’’ everywhere.

We wish to thank you for your kindness in sending the Pink Carnation 
which arrived yesterday. It looks like a very nice plant. The white 
one is now in full bloom, the first buds having completely opened in 
just the last few days and they are much admired by our friends for 
their fullness and fragrance. 
When your pink carnation arrived it just happened that a friend of 
ours was visiting Mrs. Weideman. Well, Mrs. Weideman said, you 
open this up and see for yourself how nice this is shipped, with such 
care and her friend was quite interested and asked for one of your 
order blanks. She is going to send you an order for several things.

My order for Roses came in splendid condition and I am very much 
pleased with it. 
Mrs. W. Gay Smith 

Dubuque, Towa, October 5, 1942 
The roses I purchased from you the past Summer made better growth, 
and gave more blooms than others purchased elsewhere. These were 
own-root, while the others were budded bushes. 
Frederick Fuerste
