I can spare two plants of Tetra Starzynski (Traub- 
USDA) at $8.00 each. This is what you need for 
breeding new tetraploids by crossing with other 
tetraploias, or other novel kinds pollinated by clones 
of different composition. 
Many other things can be seen when visiting this 
garden. Something is in bloom almost any time. 
There is a collection of plants blooming outside be- 
tween December 1 and March 1, the common pansy 
being one of the best to bloom all winter. Also 
thousands of Narcissus, primroses, azaleas, crocus, 
ferns, 20 some genera of amaryllids, besides new 
amaryllis hybrids blooming inside in winter. We 
will be glad to have the pleasure of guiding you 
around. Hardly any of these things are for sale, 
and the commercial side of growing plants is only 
incidental here. We do not plan to dig any thing 
on Sunday, but Sunday p.m. is a good time to see 
things. Better telephone before coming.
