Pleased with Shipment 
“Dear Sir: Received my order in really 
excellent condition. The nursery stock was 
so very well packed and wrapped and 
everything looked so nice and alive. Also 
want to thank you for the free gift.”—

Colorado. 
A “Brand New” Shrub 
It isn’t often I can tell you about a 
really new shrub. Weigela Vanicek is 
truly new and you’ll really -like it.~ Its 
May-June blooms of rose-red literally 
cover the bush, then after a period it 
blooms again and continues all summer. 
Grows 5 to 6 ft. high, good for planting 
on the front lawn, should bloom for you 
this year. No. AN578. . Price $1.00. 
Strong plant. 
Finest We Ever Grew 
“Dear Mr. Field: We sure like your seeds 
and nursery stock. My H. F. strawberries 
are the finest we ever grew. [I am going to 
try Blueberries this year.”—Mrs. 0. M. 
Pace, Heth, Arkansas, 

Enjoy Flowers

in the flowers.”’ 

From HF. Plants 
“Dear Henry: This is our son, Fred- 
erick, with some of our Nancy Hall sweet 
potatoes which were raised from H. F. 
plants. They were sure nice. We have 
limited space but certainly raise lots on 
it.’—-M. A. Warren, Cambridge, Iowa.

about my 5-in-1 apple trees. After a per-

Likes Red Bird Tomatoes 
“Dear Mr. Field: Just a few lines about 
the Red Bird tomato seed we got of you last 
spring. The vines are so hardy with such 
big leaves shading the tomatoes, and so 
heavy with tomatoes, 4 to 6 in a bunch, that 
we have difficulty in getting twihe strong 
enough to hold up the vines. The tomatoes 
are all so large and smooth. Field’s Aristo- 
erat collection of tea roses is my husband’s 
pride.”—Mr. and Mrs. Oscar F. Quick, 152 
W. 18th St., Pueblo, Colorado.

‘Dear Mr. Field: This picture of my 
little 8 mos. old grandson, Jimmy 
Schueler, of Detroit was taken while on a 
visit here. The Hybrid Elm we bought of 
you 2 yrs. ago ig now taller than our 
house. The 2 Servicemen trees we re- 
ceived are doing nicely. We lost both our 
sons and these are truly living memorials 
to them. Also as a memorial to them we 
have planted 10,000 sq. ft. all in beauti- 
ful trees and shrubs.’’—Mrs. Thomas W. 
McKinney, Rt. 6, Fort Wayne, Indiana.

so will have an H. F. garden of my own. 
Always enjoy your Seed Sense so much.”
