SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 
Due to prevailing restrictions and the lack of experienced labor, we will not issue a list of 
the more easy to grow orchids, or a list of “‘Rare Plants” this season, but expect to have a nice 
offering next year, as we have purchased a large farm just outside the city of Lakeland, 
Florida where, conditions are ideal for the propagation of these kinds of plants. We will 
offer many Florida Products next year, and expect to move our main office to Lakeland in the 
near future, however we will have northern grown glad. bulbs to offer from our northern 
warehouses, from Centertown, Ky., if not from Hamburg, N. Y. We will offer both our 
northern products as well as Florida grown products from our new location at Lakeland, Florida.
