ADDITIONAL GENERAL INFORMATION 
Word descriptions are so inadequate to describe these mag- 
nificent flowers that we are taking a great number of colored 
pictures, which we will show at any time to those interested. 
We find many varieties enjoying popularity for a few years 
only and then slowly becoming displaced by more recent intro- 
ductions. Popularity and scarceness of propagating material are 
chief factors in determining prices. There are just as lovely 
forms in the 35c varieties as in the highest priced, so do not 
use price as your criterion. 
Our stock comprises far too many varieties to list in detail 
here or even to catalog, Many are for study and reference only 
or to supply our customers with cuttings of authentic species or 
hybrids. Please feel free to consult us if you cannot find the 
particular sorts you want. 
In our gardens each plant carries its own identification 
number. We find many mis-named varieties offered to the 
public, but this condition is gradually being overcome and 
names are becoming standardized as rapidly as possible. 
It will pay you to make use of the books in your public 
library on cactus and succulents. They contain valuable descrip- 
tions and instructions on plant care. 
The first book devoted exclusively to the Epiphyllum is now 
on the market. It is entitled “‘Epiphyllum Handbook.’’ Written 
by Scott E. Haselton and published by the Abbey Press, it is a 
very fine volume. It contains a great many illustrations and 
eleven full color plates. We will -be glad to take your order. 
Price $3.50. 
The Epiphyllum Society of America starts its fiscal year in 
June. Membership is $2.00 per annum and is by invitation. We 
will be glad to supply further information if desired. Meetings 
are held in Los Angeles County every other month and a full 
report is made in the Society’s Bulletin, which is at present 
mimeographed. This bulletin is devoted to all phases of the 
Epiphyllanae group with special items of interest in each issue. 
Cuttings offered are of mature growth from six to fifteen 
inches long and are usually rooted, i.e. small plants. Medium 
plants have one or more matured growths, and are approxi- 
mately three times the prices quoted here. Mixed seeds 25c a 
packet. Quotations are subject to change without notice. 
We will never substitute without the consent of the pur- 
chaser and whenever possible would suggest that you make a 
second selection in your order. 
We endeavor to have all plants correctly named. In case of 
error, we will not be responsible for more than the original 
purchase price of the item ordered. 
Please add 20 per cent for packing and shipping or you may 
have them sent shipping charges collect. California customers 
add 21% per cent for sales tax.
