GENERAL LIST—SEASON 1951 
This list comprises the cream of the commercial! or cut flower varieties, all of 
which we use in our cut flower trade. Do not be deluded in the belief that because 
they are reasonable in price that they are not top notch varieties. You have just 
as good an opportunity to win blue ribbons with any of these as you have with 
the highly advertised new introductions priced from $2 and more per bulb. They 
have been on the market for several years, stocks are large, therefor, they have 
had the time to prove their merits of possessing all the qualifications and require- 
ments of a first class cut flower. Healthy, strong and robust growers and excellent 
propagators. The florets are not floppy, but medium size, and are well spaced in 
good arrangement on their stems. In fact they will take all kinds of abuse in 
handling, whether used in the home or as a cut flower. 
If a beginner, see our “Special Beginners Collection” on page 22. This collection 
has been carefully selected for consistent performance, and an excellent blending 
of colors. They are easy to grow, cultural directions are simple (see page 25). 
Give one of these collections a trial and be thrilled at the results. For cut flowers 
to sell to your friends, florists or highway roadside sales—white, pink and pastel 
shades are in demand. For highway sales all colors are in demand, especially red, 
rose and dark shades. Plant the early varieties as soon as possible, and also, from 
the first to the middle of June to catch the early and late cut flower market, when 
prices are high, usually from $1 per dozen and up. 
Wholesale prices per 100, 50 and 25 are listed on page 24.
