Spring Bulbs for 
Fall Planting 
We have concentrated on the few.best kinds of 
each class now in quantity production. The result 
is easy, intelligent selection by you and—lower 
prices, for top size bulbs. 
Your bulbs are specially selected for-you in 
Holland. No finer quality exists—no finer varieties— 
anywhere at any price. 
We ask that if possible you order three weeks 
in advance of your desired planting date—in fact, 
it is best to order at once on receipt of this catalog. 
All bulbs in this catalogue 
are (unless otherwise stated) 
the largest sizes commercially 
available from Holland. This 
is very different from such 
sizes as “Jumbo,” “Ist size,” 
etc., which are NOT the larg- 
est available.

This Year's Choicest Kinds—at Lowest Prices! 
Once again we offer Holland-grown tulip bulbs. In no 
other bulbs, perhaps, is origin of stock so important. The 
tulip is a cold weather plant and the cool summers and 
mild winters of Holland suit.its propagation to perfection. 
America has, true, made strides in growing tulips during 
the war, but we have nowhere a “Tulip Climate.” The 
usual top-size fér American-grown tulips is 10 to 11 cm. 
in Holland it is 12 to 13 cm.
