South Hamilton, Mass., January 1954 
our eighty-fourth year 
W. have much pleasure in presenting to you 
our 1954 Spring Catalogue and we do so with the respectful request that it 
may have your kind attention. This catalogue lists both the new and standard 
varieties and every bulb is of de Jager’s renowned superb quality. 
Since 1870, when our original nurseries were founded at Heiloo, Holland, our 
prime aim has been to produce the finest bulbs possible. Constant experi- 
menting and testing has enabled us to produce finer bulbs from each succes- 
sive planting. To-day de Jager bulbs are the standard of comparison the 
world over. They are noted for their high productivity and gorgeous blooms. 
The many thousands of customers who have bought bulbs from us through the 
years are familiar with the superb quality and our prompt, dependable 
service. To those who have not been acquainted with our bulbs, we will indeed 
be grateful for the opportunity to serve and please you. 
Last year, due to the increased amount of orders, it became necessary to 
double the size of our warehouse facilities at South Hamilton, Massachusetts. 
We are thankful to you, our customers, for your patronage and we will do 
everything possible to give you the utmost satisfaction. 
We urge a continuation of your patronage and suggest that you place your 
order early as possible, so that it may be delivered to you at the proper 
Cy 
planting time.
