AMERICAN-GROWN BULBS 
For many years, it was necessary for American gar- 
deners to look to Europe for fine grades of bulbs. 
Fortunately, that is no longer true. 
Bulb culture in Oregon and Washington has been in- 
creasingly important for several decades. This prog- 
ress was greatly accelerated by World War II, which 
cut off all European imports; spurred Pacific Coast 
growers to greater efforts in perfecting the strains 
they had been developing. 
Today, it has been definitely proved that the climate, 
soil and water of the Pacific Coast states, combined 
with skillful bulb culture, have produced bulbs WITH- 
OUT PEER ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. 
LAGOMARSINO of CALIFORNIA has taken a lead- 
ing part in this development of finer bulbs. Every 
LAGO Brand Bulb is All-American ... the result of 
75 years of striving to produce the finest in quality. 
Prices 20% to 33 1/3 % Less Than Last Year! 
Although our policy has always been to sell quality 
products, rather than to aim for cheap prices, the 
economies of mass production have made it possible 
for us to reduce prices this year, even with higher 
prices of labor and materials. 
Instead of using this extra margin derived from more 
efficient methods for extra profits, we are passing 
these savings on to our customers in the form of lower 
prices. We believe this is only fair. 
Yet, with these lower prices, you are getting even 
better quality than ever before. Our tulip bulbs are 
all Top Size, the largest grown and the pick of the crop. 
LAGO Brand Daffodils are all Double-Nose, giving 
you two or more blooms per bulb, at no extra cost over 
the price you would pay for single nose bulbs that 
produce only one flower.
