it is not always convenient for gardeners to take care of them at that 
time. For those gardeners we recommend spring planting when you 
are planting your garden for the season. The stock we offer is grown 
strictly for root -production and while our list is limited, still in 
standard varieties they are a very good selecton and can be recom- 
mended to give fine results. Price: $1.00 per plant, $10.00 per 
dozen.
