VISIT OUR GARDENS 
We are located one and one-half miles S. E. of 
the Wateroo City limits on Highway 218. 
You are always welcome to visit our gardens. 
Come any time—in the spring when tulips, iris, 
and peonies are in bloom; later from July 15 to 
frost, we have acres of gladiolus and dahlias 
blooming. 
The best way to select new varieties for your 
garden is to see them growing. We also have 
many perennial and annual plants which are 
very interesting. You are under no obligation to 
buy. 
We do a complete florist business during the 
summer season furnishing flowers for any occas- 
sion, church baskets and decorations, wedding 
bouquets, funeral designs and so on. 
A bouquet of flowers is a welcome gift and 
a token of love to anyone and especially to a 
sick friend. We deliver or wire flowers anywhere. 
FLOWER SEEDS 
We carry Mandville Flower seeds and have 
the latest in varieties and new colors. There are 
also vines from seeds, gourds, etc. Send us your 
wants. 
WATCH OUT FOR THRIP 
Thrip are small insects that suck the life of 
glad blooms. Many blame disease or other 
causes when thrip is doing the damage. If pre- 
sent on bulbs soak in a solution of one gallon 
of water to one tablespoon of Lysol for 4 to 6 
hours. To protect blooms dust with DDT every 
week or 10 days when spikes are a foot to 18 
inches high. Many handy dusters are on the 
market and a little prevention will insure fine 
bloom.
