TO OUR CLIENTS: 
The time for spring planting will soon be at hand. The 
time for planning your garden of summer and autumn flowers 
is already here. Your garden plan will include generous quan- 
tities of bulbs if you wish to is assured of a copious succes- 
sion of flowers to cut for the house and to enjoy in the gar- 
den. Tuberous begonias for shady places, daylilies and glad- 
iolas for many months of bloom, tuberoses for their purity 
and fragrance, montbretias for their tawny appeal, all these 
should be grown wherever summer flowers are wanted — 
which is in every garden. And do not forget to order now, 
for August planting, the colchicums, autumn crocuses, stern- 
bergias and wild cyclamen for drifts of bright autumn color. 
To meet your requirements we offer herewith our selective, 
yet comprehensive, list of the choicest and best kinds to 
grow among the summer- and autumn-flowering bulbs. Early 
ordering is highly advisable as the supply of the best bulbs is 
always limited. 
Our Spring Display 
Once more we invite you and your friends to visit our 
display of spring flowers here at "Lenteboden" on the River 
Road about a mile and a half north of New Hope. Here each 
year the spring-flowering bulbs bloom in all their glory, be- 
ginning with snowdrops and crocuses and continuing through 
daffodils and early tulips to the tall, May-flowering tulips and 
wood hyacinths. More than |,000 separate plantings by va- 
riety have been made of some 50,000 bulbs. 
A Living Catalogue 
Each year this display is regarded by more and more 
gardeners and garden lovers as a horticultural event they 
would not miss. We hope that you will be among them this 
spring. Moreover this show has a value far beyond the beau- 
tiful spectacle which it is. It is also a living catalogue. As 
such it surpasses the most lavishly illustrated printed list im- 
aginable as a guide in selecting spring-flowering bulbs for 
your own garden. For here you can choose varieties, not 
from printed lithographs, but from the flowers themselves. 
So make note of the empty spaces in your garden, then come 
to Lenteboden, select Sec, our bulbs for the fall. We 
can offer for sale only for the tation of the display the 
vast range of varieties shown here. Later buyers must choose 
from a much more restricted list. 
Three Times To Visit 
Our gardens will be open for visiting and placing orders 
for fall delivery from April | through May 24, from 10 A. M. 
to 6 P, M. every day including Sundays. Weekday visiting is 
usually less crowded. New Hope can be reached from the 
New York area by N. J. Route 29. From the Philadelphia 
vicinity, Pa. 232 and Pa. 263—U. S. 202 lead to New Hope. 
It is an easy two-hour drive from midtown New York and 
about an hour and a quarter from downtown Philadelphia. 
The map inside shows the location of our gardens.

into three periods during each of which the gardens should 
be visited:

species tulips.
