DEDICATION 
We are sure that all who knew her felt they had lost a part of good old gardening when 
Mrs. Clara Sue Jarrett passed on last year at her Great Lakes Nursery home in Saratoga, 
California. 
Mrs. Jarrett was a real flower gardener. She loved her Pelargoniums. She not only grew up 
with them, but in later years raised uncounted thousands of plants from cuttings, and for about 
forty years she annually saved seeds and planted them for new forms and colors. In the course 
of that many years she introduced close to a hundred named varieties of her own and it is with 
this work that her name will always be identified. 
A great many varieties grown in nurseries this year were grown-up children to Mrs. Jarrett 
years ago. Majesta and Flora Belle Clouse (introduced in 1910); Rose (1916); Baby (1919); Sue 
Jarrett (1924); Clara Angenette German (1926); Sunset Magazine and Annie Laurie (1932); 
Jarrett’s Henna (1934); Felicie Hammons (1935); Ardith, Haile Selassie and Jarrett’s Beauty in 
1936; Palo Alto (1937); Jessie Jarrett and Mother’s Day in 1938, and Lucy Ann Leslie and Ruth 
Ellen Kellogg in 1939 are just a few. Other popular Jarrett originations of recent years are Joan 
Fontaine, Jarrett’s Moonbeam, Shangri La, O. Homer Bryan, Beverly Fabretti, Heloise Hammons, 
Irene Ditmer, Saint Francis, Fiesta Lady, and others. 
If you grow one or more of these varieties in your garden, you probably do as we do when 
we see them in bloom or hear their names mentioned. We think of a grand little old lady work- 
ing away among her beloved Pelargoniums, and it’s always a picture of Mrs. Clara Sue Jarrett. 
Please Read Carefully Before Ordering 
Write plainly, or better, print your name and full address (shipping address, too, if different from 
mailing address). If you live in a rural district, please give the county name; if in a city, please give 
the postal zone. 
All shipping orders are cash. No C.O.D. orders. For your own protection, please remit full amount 
by check or money order. Do not send currency or coins. 
We do NOT prepay shipping orders. Postage or express to be paid by the customer. We recom- 
mend forwarding all orders by Railway Express, but if you wish to have your order forwarded by 
parcel post, please be sure to so indicate and include an amount to cover mailing charges. We will 
refund surplus at once. 
We are not responsible for the safe arrival of plants after they have been accepted in good order 
by the carrier. Claims for damage in transit should be filed with the carrier on delivery. 
There is no charge for packing material and no handling charge. However, because of high labor 
costs we do not accept shipping orders for less than $2.50. If you want only a plant or two, perhaps 
your friend would like to order, too, and together you could easily get a minimum $2.50 order to us. 
On all orders for delivery within California, please add the 242% California Sales Tax. 
We NEVER substitute if out of a variety. Because of general shortage of stock, we urge you to 
PLEASE GIVE A SECOND CHOICE WHENEVER POSSIBLE. It will save you—and us—a lot of corre- 
spondence. 
All plants are properly labeled and graded. 
We do not sell rooted or unrooted cuttings, but only well grown and established plants in pots.
