SEEDS 
Following is a list of seeds of bulbous plants 
available this season. Because we have them in 
very small quantities and because of the great 
diversity of the materials offered we do not 
send out growing instructions with them. How- 
ever, there is very little difference in sprouting 
seeds of bulbs and any other seeds except that 
when you are working with bulb seeds you must 
have great patience. You can never expect them 
to germinate in three days and bloom in ninety 
days. They are not annuals. Great majority of 
the seeds will germinate the first year but some 
of them will take two years while most of them 
will require three to five years to come to bloom- 
ing size. So please don’t be scratching up the 
seeds every few days to see what is happening. 
Leave them alone and don’t drown them with 
too much water. Keep them moist and warm 
and let mature work for you. Germination of 
Orchid seeds has a special technique and you 
can easily learn it by goimg to your library 
and reading a book on orchids, especially the 
one by Prof. Edward A. White, entitled ‘‘Amer- 
ican Orchid Culture.,’’ and following his in- 
structions to the letter. You may not succeed the 
first time but you will soon learn. 
Seeds are put up in 25c packets, the quantity 
of seeds varying according to the value of the 
seed. Where there are less than six seeds to a 
package special mention of the price per seed or 
the number of seeds per packet is given. In case 
of Orchid seeds special prices are quoted. 
We send out fresh, viable seeds but assume no 
responsibility for their germination, growth or 
anything connected with them, and in case of 
failure we will not replace them. 
Some seeds can not be held for any length of 
time and they are delivered as soon as harvested, 
and for that reason it is imperative that you 
place your order before the seeds ripen.
