Gentlemen: I had a great thrill last 
evening at the Delaware County Hor- 
ticultural Show of which I am a mem- 
rs 
I won a first prize on my entry of 
“Red Emperor’ Tuips. 
Since they were your bulbs I wanted 
you to know of it. There were many 
entries of the Tulips, but my entry 
was superb. 
I purchased these bulbe from you 
about four years ago—they have been 
in the ground ever since and seem to be 
prettier as the years go by. 
Since so many of the members in- 
quired as to where they were purchas- 
ed, I would like to have your latest 
catalog and price list. I can’t tell you 
how really magnificent all my Tulip 
bulbs from you people have been. 
Thank you. 
Very truly yours, 
MRS. FREDERIC M. RATH

Dear Sirs: Last summer I purchased 
some Tulip, Lily and other bulbs 
from you, and I wish to say for those 
flowers that have bloomed, I could 
not expect aay thing better, they were 
the envy of all my neighbors. 
I am sorry I did not get to enjoy 
my Red Emperor Tulips because the 
squirrels ate the flower buds off them, 
but the two that survived this des- 
truction were beautiful. The same 
thing happened to my Parrot Tulips. I 
only had 2 Yellow Sunshine and 1 
Therese blooms for the same reason. 
Several of the Tulips had twins, that 
is 2 flowers from branching stalks, but 
they were good. 
Here is a peculiar one, I believe 
it was Indian Chief (Breeder). One 
stalk came up, then it separated into 
2, then from one of the stalks another 
one branched off and then from the 
same stalk came another, so that I 
had 4 flowers from the one buib. The 
best of all were the Triumph and Lily 
type Tulips. Hope to be able to buy a 
ew more this year. 
Yours truly, 
JOHN C, CULLUM 
I have purchased bulbs from you 
once in a while as I could afford them. 
I remember ordering some about 25 
years ago originally.

Dear Sirs: Last fall I ordered from 
your catalog the Rainbow Collection 
No. 3 of Tulips. I just want to tell 
you I have never seen such beautiful 
Tulips in my life. They were even 
prettier than the pictures. 
also ordered the dwarf Iris on 
page 21. Also the Crocus Special 
Offer ‘*29°’ and every bulb bloomed 
and were just as pretty as the Tulips, 
and everyone has admired them s0 
much and want to order this fall. 
Sincerely,

Dear Sirs: Received my Tulips and 
the Estate Lily bulbs and I’m very, 
very much pleased. They came in fine 
shape and they are the best bulbs I’ve 
ever purchased. I have over 500 Tu- 
lip bulbs in my garden and I’m look- 
ing forward, next spring, to a much 
better assortment with the lovely bulbs 
I got from you. Thanks for your 
promptness and good bulbs. 
Sincerely,

Gentlemen: Will you please send me 
your flower bulb catalog. I wish to 
compliment you on your Daffedil bulbs. 
I bought several potted ones this year 
from Mr. Weiss at Holboro, who has a 
= ooues and who had potted your 
ulbs, both Tulips and Daftodils. They 
were the largest and most beautiful 
bulbs I have ever seen. 
I have a small greenhouse only 12 
by 18 ft. but have had a successful 
winter, Your spots of bulbs were out- 
standing and admired above all others— 
hence my desire for your catalog so 
that I can order my own this fall. 
incerely yours, 
MRS. WILFRED HOWARD
