GUARANTEE — REMITTANCE — SHIPPING CONDITIONS 
We guarantee our bulbs to be of a very fine quality, true to name and in 
excellent condition when dispatched, but, like every other nurseryman, we 
cannot guarantee or assume responsibility for the flowering results, which are 
beyond our control. In order to give an unconditional guarantee, it would be 
necessary to greatly increase the price which we are trying to hold at the 
lowest possible figure in order to suit everyone’s means. 
A cordial invitation is extended to anyone who wishes to inspect our stock,

ALLIUM (Flowering Garlics) 
Do not let the name deceive you. Very few emit the famous scent unless 
their foliage is bruised. They like a sunny situation. We cannot recommend 
them too highly. They are good perennials for the adornment of the flower 
border. The small varieties are the finest for the rock garden. Plant four 
inches deep, three to four inches apart. 
A. albo-pilosum — Produces astonishingly large spherical umbels of 9” in 
length or over. They are composed of hundreds of 1” star-shaped 
flowers of a radiant metallic llac color, exceptionally beautiful. The 
stems vary from 15” to 20”; quite large foliage resembling single 
rosettes of Yucca but very silvery and downy. Due to its excellent 
lasting qualities it is unsurpassable for use as a cut flower. Most 
desirable for accent in the rock garden, flower border and foundation 
planting. Greatly admired by all who view it in our nurseries. 
Note: ‘On account of the huge size of its blossoms, it is important to 
plant further apart than most Alliums — at least 9” apart or more, 
and 4” deep. $1.50 per 10 $12.00 per 100 
A. azureum — A very charming species from the Altai Mountains, where so 
many beautiful bulbous plants are native. The flower umbels are 
produced on 24” stems. As its name denotes, they are of a charming 
sky blue color. Plant in groups of six or more in the flower border. 
It also makes a charming accent in the rock garden.
