f-.* => QUR 1944 ‘RELEASES 
Since, due to war conditions, we were not able to exhibit at any 
shows the ‘last two seasons we are introducing these varieties at quite low 
prices with the hope that many people will be induced to try them and 
exhibit them at local shows, thus giving many more the opportunity of 
seeing and admiring them. These prices will not be lowered rapidly 
and may in some cases be raised in following years.
