To Our Clients: 
Once more the season for spring planting is at hand. 
Undoubtedly your summer gardening plans call for 
the use this year of many bulbs, for they are unex- 
celled in beauty, simplicity of culture and certainty 
of bloom. To meet your needs we offer herewith our 
selected, yet comprehensive, list of the choicest and 
best kinds to grow among the summer- and autumn- 
flowering bulbs. Early ordering is highly recommended 
as stocks of the best bulbs are never plentiful enough. 
Our Spring Display— 
ws Living Catalogue 
You and your friends are cordially invited to visit 
our display of spring flowers here at Lenteboden on 
the River Road about a mile and a half north of New 
Hope. More than 30,000 bulbs in over 1,000 separate 
plantings by variety have been made, ranging in 
blooming time from the earliest snowdrops and aco- 
nites through daffodils and tulips to the late May- 
flowering wood hyacinths. 
These flowers make a thrilling sight which cer- 
tainly should be seen by every lover of garden beauty 
within a half day’s drive from New Hope. But it is as 
a living catalogue that our display affords the greatest 
opportunity to gardeners. Not the most lavishly printed 
catalogue conceivable can equal or even approach this 
living catalogue as a means of making a selection of 
spring-flowering bulbs for your garden. Here you can 
see, not a few imperfect lithographs, but the flowers 
themselves, of the varieties available for your choice. 
So make note of the empty spaces in your garden, then 
come to Lenteboden, select and order your bulbs for 
the fall. We can offer for sale the vast range of 
varieties shown here, only during the life of the display, 
after which a much more restricted list is available 
for the convenience of later buyers. 
Our gardens will be open for visiting and placing 
orders for fall delivery from April 1 through May 20, 
from 10 A.M. to 6 P.M. every day including Sundays. 
Weekday visiting is usually less crowded. New Hope 
can be reached from the New York area by N. J. Route 
29. From the Philadelphia vicinity Pa. 232 and Pa. 
263-U. S. 202 lead to New Hope. It is an easy two- 
hour drive from midtown New York and about an hour 
and a quarter from downtown Philadelphia. The map 
inside shows the location of our gardens. 
Blooming times vary with the seasons but fall ap- 
proximately into three periods during each of which 
the gardens should be visited: 
1. April 1-April 20 for hyacinths, early bulbs, and 
species tulips. 
2. April 15-May 5 for early tulips and daffodils. 
3. May 1-May 20 for the tall May-flowering tulips, 
scillas and late daffodils.
