INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING BULBS 
All orders for $2.00 or over postpaid. Prices in this list are net. All orders must be 
accompanied by cash in full or 25% cash may be sent with the order and the balance before 
shipment. All stock is guaranteed true to name, disease-free, and thrip-free. All stock is 
offered subject to prior sale. If any of our customers are willing to pay the transportation 
charges on their order, we will see that there are bulbs of a value much larger than the 
shipping cost added to the order to offset these charges. 
Where bulblets are listed by the packet, 50 to 100 or more will be included in each 
packet. Excellent value guaranteed. 
Five bulbs will be sold at one half the price of ten, but no single item will be accepted 
for less than 20 cents, unless quoted. If no 10 price is stated, it may be found by multiply - 
ing the price of a single item by 8. 
We earnestly urge you to order as early as possible to avoid disappointment. 
EXTRAS 
We make it our business to put in with your order extra varieties, usually the 
newer ones for you to try out. If you like them, there is a good chance your order 
will include some more next year. You see we can both win. 
BULB SIZES 
Bulbs are graded into six different sizes. No. 1 size is 142 in. and up; No. 2, 1% in. to 
1% in. with Y% in. variation down to No. 6 size, which is % in. and under. In the retail 
list where Large, Medium and Small are used, Large will consist of No. 1 and No. 2 sizes, 
or No. 1 size as long as they last. Medium consists of No. 3 and No. 4 sizes, or No. 3 
size as long as they last. Small sizes consist of No. 5 and No. 6 sizes. Early orders will 
get preference on the size. If you order Medium sizes for instance, and you get part 
or all No. 4 bulbs or 34 in. to 1 in., please do not write us that we have given you 
the wrong size. It’s simply because we are out of No. 3 size, and No. 4 bulbs also go 
as Medium size. Medium bulbs will almost invariably bloom, although not quite as 
large a spike can be expected as from a large size. Small-size usually will bloom, but 
not always. 
ATTENTION! 
All 1945 (or previous) names, who have not sent us an order since °45, will be dropped 
from our mailing list unless you send us a card, telling us you still want to receive our 
catalogue. 
EXPLANATION 
The number just after the name of the variety in the descriptive price list designates 
the classification number if one desires to enter a variety at a flower show. The classifica- 
tion table is given on page 23. The next word in parenthesis is the name of the originator, 
followed by the year the variety was introduced. Next comes the blooming time and then 
the parentage of the variety. 
CULTURAL DIRECTIONS 
Please refer to last year’s catalogue for cultural directions. A sheet of complete cul- 
tural directions will be sent with every order.
