growers to select only the best selected stock for planting. 
Our growers have planted for this Fall delivery 5-6" 
and 6-7" to enable us to get bulbs that will produce 
heavy in flowers for Easter forcing. Easter 1949 is April 
17th. Your lilies will be stored and precooled properly, 
delivered to you during the months of November-Decem- 
ber, earlier if desired.
