BY PLANTING FLOWER BULBS THIS AUTUMN 
The flower bulbs offered in this autumn Catalog are pro- 
duced in America, England, France, and Holland. Each 
year we test at our Trial Bulb Gardens many of the standard 
as well as new and rare varieties, and in recommending 
them to our clients we base our offering on the experience 
that comes from the observation that they are outstanding 
and merit our listing. 
Notwithstanding the severe winter both here in America 
and in Europe, the reports indicate that all bulbous stock 
shows ‘promise of a reasonably good crop of high-quality 
bulbs. At our own Mile-Front Bulb Farm at Islip, Long 
Island, the growth attained at this time, June 1, 1s much 
better than Iast year. Our growers in other parts of the 
United States as well as England, France, and Holland are 
reporting favorable growing conditions. 
You can have flowers in your garden from March through 
July by planting some of the various varieties of bulbs offered 
this autumn. 
Early fall is a good time to sow Lawn Seed and it is also 
a desirable time to plant Perennial Flower Seeds, Asparagus, 
Horseradish, Rhubarb Roots, Strawberry Plants, as well as 
Herb Plants. We offer a select list of Hardy Perennial 
Plants grown at our Farmingdale Long Island Farm.

MRS. EDWIN CARTER. This Tulip 1s a distinct ad- 
vance in a bright lively peach-pink over-all color. The 
lower part of the petals is a pure tvory-white, with a 
decided flush of peach-pink, giving the general effect 
of lively pink. The color is decidedly different from any 
other Tulip in our list. Itlends a note of pink to the garden 
that no other Darwin Tulip does. The base is pure white 
with yellow anthers; the flower is large and of excellent 
substance. This ts a decided acqisition in this beau-

any of the finest Exhibition Darwin Tulips. It blooms 
approximately five days before the earliest Darwins 
and lasts a long time in good condition, retaining Its 
color well throughout the life of the flower. Under good 
cultivation it attains the height of 28 inches.
