Once again the seasons have rolled around. We wish to take this opportunity of 
welcoming to the ranks of flower growers two fine gentlemen who have this past 
season purchased our entire stock of plants. Mr. Paul Anderson and Mr. L. J. Briscoe 
have a strong interest in the growing of fine plants and for several years we have 
known Mr. Briscoe who has had wide experience in the florist field. 
Flower growers can consider themselves fortunate in meeting and knowing these 
two fine lovers and growers of flowers and we can assure you that your orders will 
receive the same degree of attention and care in filling as we have attempted in. 
the past. 
We also want to take this oportunity of bidding our many flower friends adieu 
in as much as the elder Mr. and Mrs. Geiser are retiring from business and our son 
and daughter-in-law are continuing with their war interrupted education. Thank you .

Greetings! And thanks to the Geisers for the introduction 
above. Being new to the growing of iris but having had ex- 
perience in growing peonies and greenhouse work for several 
years, we will endeavor to give you the most and the best for 
your money and at all times give you the most satisfactory 
service. We have omitted several of the older iris from this 
catalog and as time goes on, we will confine our growing to a 
smaller number of varieties but will always aim to carry the 
very best quality that may be purchased anywhere. Complete 
“Terms. of Sale” will be found on the inside of the back cover. — 
This year we are accepting orders for filling only in order 
of rotation-received; first come, first served. No stock reserved 
for later shipment. Hence, it is recommended that you place 
your order early and if at all possible give a second choice 
when ordering. 
Now a word about our show gardens. Since we are mov- 
ing our plantings and stocks to a new location in Salina, the 
iris in the fields and gardens may be viewed this year (1951) 
at the Beloit location of 10 3/4 miles south and 3 West of Be- 
loit. It is not our intention to have a lavish display garden and 
this year if viewing the iris, bring your hiking shoes (and 
maybe overshoes) and an ample lunch for you won’t be able 
to make the rounds all in 10 minutes. If you pay us a visit — 
come on some day other than Sunday to avoid the crowds. For 
the 1952 season we plan to have display gardens open to the 
public at our Salina, Kansas location and announcement of 
same will be made in our 1952 catalog. 
Kansas sunshine, plenty of rain and rich soil makes for 
plenty fine big healthy roots. We don’t claim to grow the 
largest roots in the world but we do believe we have the 
eney and the best acclimated roots which will do well any- 
where. Se
