OUR COLLECTION OF SEEDLINGS 
Each year we make hundreds of hand-crossed 
pollenizations, selecting both pollen and seed 
parents from among the finest varieties in our 
gardens. Approximately one seedling in every 
lot of one thousand proves so distinctive, so 
meritorious, so outstanding, and so different 
from any other variety in commerce that it is 
given a name and introduced. 
The seedlings which we sell are not small 
roots just sprouting—they are just as large as 
those of named varieties and will bloom in your 
garden next spring; they are rhizomes taken 
from seedling clumps which have bloomed in 
our experimental field. This year we offer you 
the bargain of bargains.
