Greetings, friends! 
Thanks for your support of our hybridizing work through your orders. 
Our big move from Los Angeles to Escondido is now nearly complete, 
with 12 acres of iris and daylilies growing profusely in this virgin soil. 
With the heaviest rainfall in years, we will have wonderful plants and 
lots of them; so with every order give us some hints of what you want 
for your surprise, and when stocks permit we will include something 
special. 
Note the special offers on the order blank. If you want early ship- 
ment, let us know, for we will start shipping seedling orders May lst 
and will be able to ship some orders with the seedlings. Wholesale cus- 
tomers welcomed. Write for special terms.
