As usual I am booking orders for my famous novelty 
boxes which contain a collection of 12 dozen (144) blooms 
in 12 unusual varieties. Blooms should be at their peak 
during Easter week and orders will .be accepted from 
March 10 until the end of the season. PRICE $3.25 per 
box including postage and Special Delivery charges. 
Named collections of 1 to 3 blooms of a variety for ex- 
hibitions at 10 cents per bloom. Garden Clubs use these 
at their meetings to show members some of the marvelous 
new varieties. 512 varieties from which to select. 
Daffodil on Parade 
1945 
The daffodil, also called jonquil or narcissus, is one of 
the most beautiful and permanent of all garden flowers; 
also a superb cut flower for the house, especially, if not 
kept in a dry over-heated room. They are among the 
easiest of all garden subjects; requiring little care or at- 
tention. Once planted they will thrive and increase in- 
definitely. It is advisable, however, to dig, separate and 
replant every 3 or 4 years as multiplication is so rapid 
that an area of soil that is sufficient to support one bulb, 
cannot take care of 6 or 8 and permit them to produce 
satisfactory blooms. 
Order bulbs in the spring while they are fresh in your 
mind and avoid the disappointment of orders placed late 
in the fall. There will again be a shortage of certain 
novelties and orders will, of course, be filled in order of 
their receipt. Five per cent discount allowed on orders 
received before June 15, 1945. Checks with orders, please, 
or, if desired, C.O.D. Shipments of bulbs will be made in 
September. Do not put off buying bulbs from this list 
till next year. DAFFODILS ON PARADE FOR 1946 
will have almost an entirely different assortment of va- 
rieties. The reason, due to labor shortage, my grower is 
lifting only half his stock each year.
