YOUR 1944 CATALOG: 
As in 1948, you will receive just this one catalog. It contains all the 
items we have to offer, and, due of course to paper shortage, we cannot 
issue a separate Fall List. Beginning with Tigridias, which of course 
are always planted during spring months, you will find a nice assort- 
ment oi early and late blooming Lilies, and a few miscellaneous bulbs 
and seeds. 
It is necessary of course to conserve paper as much as possible; but 
we also feel it important that you should know something of the plants 
you intend to buy. We have done our best to give all the information 
necessary to good success with the plants herein hsted. Should you 
wish to share this catalog with a fellow gardener, you have our hearty 
thanks. But please do not destroy it, for it contains planting and cul- 
Lira ee nC Ones nichmaresimpottant..,.. ou. will need. it, too, to 
identify the varieties as they come into bloom. 
TIGRIDIAS should have a prominent place in every garden. They 
require so little and give so much, every gardener, young and mature, 
can share in the enjoyment oi them without a lot of hard work. No 
spraying, no thinning of buds, no picking off old bloms, no pruning. 
Planted properly, and given plenty of water, tigridias can be relied upon 
to bloom a longer season than any other flower. 
LILIES ot course, need no «introduction to most flower lovers. 
Their lovely blossoms have been enjoyed for centuries by all the people 
of the earth: We olier several varieties this year, with more to follow 
in future years. With the possible exception of one or two varieties, all 
our lilies are grown from seed—clean, healthy bulbs. 
While it is just not possible for us to guarantee every plant to do its 
best in your garden, for soils and climates vary so widely, we do pledge 
vou our earnest cooperation and assistance with your garden problems. 
Yours very truly,
