PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ORDERING 
All quotations are subject to previous sale. We urge that you place your orders 
early so that you may not be disappointed. Each year we are unable to fill late 
orders for a number of varieties. No orders for bulblets will be accepted after 
April 1 as we expect to be planting bulblet stock by that time. We do not care to 
accept orders for bulbs after May 1, except for mixtures, as many varieties will be 
planted by that time. Orders are segregated as soon as possible after being received 
but will not be shipped until after danger of freezing is past, unless you request 
otherwise. However, bulbs can be sent any time desired. No substitutions will be 
made without your permission. If we are out of a variety you order, your money will 
be refunded unless you give us permission to make a substitution in size or variety. 
Cultural directions will be included with all orders. 
ORDERS 
Orders from the retail list amounting to $2.00 or more will be prepaid to points 
in the United States. We prefer not to receive orders amounting to less than $2.00. If 
such orders are sent, please include a fee of 25 cents to cover the cost of postage and 
packing. Prices as indicated in the quantity list are not prepaid, but are F. O. B. 
Middletown, Pennsylvania. If you wish to order part from the retail list and part from 
the quantity list, we will send the order transportation collect and will include extras 
or overcounts to make up for the transportation on the retail items. WHERE ALL OR 
A PART OF THE ORDER IS FROM THE QUANTITY LIST, PLEASE DO NOT SEND 
MONEY TO COVER TRANSPORTATION COSTS. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO 
ESTIMATE THE COST OF TRANSPORTATION. PLEASE WAIT AND PAY THE 
TRANSPORTATION CHARGES WHEN THE BULBS ARE RECEIVED. 
Where a variety is listed at 2 for 20 cents or 2 for 25 cents, etc., please do not 
order a smaller number at a lower price. Five bulbs will be sold at one-half the price 
of ten, but no single item will be accepted for less than 20 cents except when so quoted. 
Where no 10 price is indicated, it may be found by multiplying the price of a single 
bulb by 8. 
Where bulblets are sold by the packet, 25 to 50 or more will be included in each 
packet. We will give good value. 
Do not ask for special quotations unless you have a large order. Our prices are 
very low for the high quality bulbs offered. However, we are glad to furnish special 
quotations to jobbers, growers, and others purchasing in large quantities. 
DISCOUNTS 
A discount of 5% in other bulbs will be allowed on cash orders from the retail 
list amounting to from $3.00 to $10.00. On such orders amounting to more than 
$10.00 a discount of 10% in other bulbs will be allowed. These discounts do not apply to 
“collections,” to items marked “no discount” nor to orders from the quantity price list. 
We also include worthwhile extras with retail orders. The value of the extras will be 
in proportion to the size of the order. Suggest varieties desired as extras. If we have 
sufficient stock we will comply with your request. However, new introductions and 
varieties marked “no discount” cannot be used as extras. 
BULB SIZES 
All bulbs listed as large size are 1% inches and up, mostly 1% inches and up, in 
diameter. Medium size bulbs are % to 1% inches in diameter. Small bulbs are 
1% to % inches in diameter. For the finest blooms, large bulbs are best. Medium size 
bulbs of most varieties will give nice cut flowers, but the spikes are not as long as from 
large bulbs. Although small bulbs of many varieties will bloom, others will not. 
The blooms from small bulbs will be noticeably smaller in size. Bulblets seldom 
bloom and are often difficult or impossible to germinate. We do not recommend them 
except to experienced growers.
