We thank our customers for their continued support and wish them success in their 
gardens this coming season. 
This spring we are offering a representative list of standard chrysanthemum 
favorites as well as a few new varieties. Plants available from mid May. 
In addition to the Merry hemerocallis clones, we are adding a list of desirable 
varieties of other hybridizers. Spring, late summer and fall delivery. Blooming 
dates are for 1952. which was an early season. 
Although we are not listing bearded iris this year, we grow a fine group in the 
medium priced field, including some of the new wanted pinks. Ready after blooming. 
Visitors are always welcomee Iris are at their peak in early June; hemerocallis 
(daylilies) in mid July, but continue their bloom through August; chrysanthemums in 
late September to frost and after in our plastic shelter. Begonias, of which we now 
grow 150 varieties, are on display all through the year. 
Terms are cash with order, check, draft, or money order. Postage is paid on 
orders over $5; on smaller orders add 35¢ for packing and postage.
