Greetings to all our friends everywhere, and many 
thanks for all the fine orders you sent to Sunlight Gar- 
dens last season. This year, as usual, nearly all our 
bulbs were grown from bulblets. The greatest drought 
in the history of our section held sizes down, but it gave 
us some nice clean bulbs. Small sizes of most varieties 
will bloom if planted early, but medium sizes will give 
larger blooms. This is the size we like to use for our 
florist trade. Large bulbs do not usually produce so 
many bulblets but they will bloom a week of more 
earlier than the smaller sizes. 
Large bulbs will measure 1% inches or more. Med- 
iums measure % to 1%. Smalls are % to % inches, 
while planting stock measures less than 4% inch. Un- 
less otherwise noted, bulblets will be sold by the pack- 
age. Counting consumes so much time that it is 
cheaper to package a handful. Twenty-five cents per 
package for all the regular kinds. 
Unless otherwise noted after the description of a 
variety, the price of all bulbs will be as follows: 
Large 2 for .20, Medium 4 for .20, Small 10 for .20 
Large 10 for .80, Medium 10 for .40, Small 10 for .20 
Bulblets are $1.00 per half pint or $3.00 per quart. 
Five or more bulbs may be purchased at the ten rate 
but please make each item at least 20 cents. Where 
prices are given after the description of a variety, the 
price for 10 will be 8 times the price of one. You 
may have 5 or more at the same rate. 
Excessive shipping charges make it impossible for 
us to accept orders for less than $2.50. Retail orders 
will be shipped prepaid east of the Rockies. West, 
add postage at the rate of fifty cents per 100 large 
bulbs. 
WHOLESALE ORDERS 
On a great many varieties we can furnish medium 
and small sizes and bulblets at wholesale in lots of 
100 or more. Write if interested and I will be happy 
to quote prices,
