W: ARE most grateful for your confidence in our stock, and we sincerely hope that our plants and sug- 
gestions for helping you to have a better garden will continue to merit that confidence. 
During the past year improvements in buildings and grounds have been made at our nursery and more 
varieties of plants have been added to our list, all with the idea of serving you better. We hope you may find it 
convenient to visit our nursery this spring. 
We always have available a few varieties of plants that are not listed in our catalog, due to very limited quantity. 
Our garden friends are welcome to come and look over our stock while it is growing in the field. This gives you an 
opportunity to see the new kinds of plants under trial and makes it easier for many of you to select the varieties 
you would like to have in your garden. 
Roses are always popular, and we have a good selection of varieties for your consideration. On request we have 
increased our supply of the patented Roses. All our Roses are grown in large paper pots and can be easily plan'ed 
in your garden without danger of loss. 
Dr. Longley of the University of Minnesota is introducing two new varieties of Mums this year., 46—271-12 is a 
nice white with a yellow center such as is found in Avalanche. 46—176—16 has a beautiful pink, medium-sized fully 
double flower, and is a free bloomer over a long period. 
Wychwood, one of the later additions to the Chicago strain, did very well for us last season. It has a large, clear 
yellow pompon type bloom. 
The two Shasta Daisies Majestic and Double Supreme (only semi-double) were noticeably fine the past year 
and are worthy of a place in any garden. Both are excellent cutting varieties. 
We again have a supply of the Lyondel Hybrid Delphinium. It is a vigorous grower, has large flowers and 
apparently is hardier than many strains. 
The fragrant Garden Pinks and Carnations are always good garden subjects. Perkins Double White Pink, 
with its neat compact foliage and highly scented flowers, is our finest pink. Dianthus Little Joe with its big crim- 
son flowers is an excellent plant for the edge of your garden. Both Carnations, White Gold and Cynthia, have done 
very well at our nursery. 
Our selection of annuals has been enriched by the addition of several new varieties. We have the new Tetra 
Snapdragon and the Tetraploid Dianthus Heddensis. Both varieties show more vigor than the regular strains. 
We also have Burpee’s Hybrid Tomato. 
The Strawberry Baron Von Solemacher is an interesting novelty. It is a runnerless Strawberry bearing many 
sweet, small, elongated berries and is recommended for trial and for those who want something different in their 
garden.
