Dear Friends and Gardeners: 
| do hope you enjoyed your bulbs and flowers this spring as much 
as we did ours. A 20% increase in production gave me my largest 
crop of daffodil blooms in several years. 
King Alfred is still the acknowledged leader in the commercial field. 
However the most beautiful red cup varieties such as Carolina, Scarlet 
Leader, Agra, Actaea, and Dick Wellband were very satisfying this 
spring in spite of hot weather in their blooming season. 
_ We are proud of the selection of varieties we are offering this year 
in our mixtures, which bloom over a period of five or six weeks. Our 
Yellow Mixture gives a nice selection of standard types. The Gloucester 
County Mixture has standard varieties along with some whites and 
red cups, while the River's Edge Mixture gives an interesting selection 
of novelties along with the yellows. Each mixture is composed of high 
quality, blooming-size bulbs. 
All our bulbs sold by the bushel are composed of varieties which 
are excellent for naturalizing, i.e. planting informally where grass need 
not be mowed in the spring until the tops die. Our customers write 
us of planting our naturalizing bulbs in meadows, in vacant lots in 
towns, on hillsides, in light woods, or by lakes. 
| sincerely thank those of you who have written me pleasant letters, 
telling me of the spring beauty you have created with my bulbs. Your 
enthusiasm brightens my interest in growing and shipping good bulbs. 
Sincerely, 
(MRS.) SELINA L. HOPKINS

WE PREPAY ALL CHARGES on all bulbs, including our bushel and 
peck offers, to all points EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. 
CUSTOMERS LIVING WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER will please 
add ten per cent to our prices for DAFFODILS to help with transpor- 
tation charges. (This is necessary because daffodil bulbs are heavy, 
and the cost of transporting them is quite high.) Tulips and all other 
bulbs will be sent any place in this country postpaid. 
GUARANTEE: Our bulbs are guaranteed to reach you in first class 
condition. Packages should be opened at once on arrival and ex- 
amined. Any molded bulbs reported within 10 days of receipt will 
be replaced free of charge. 
PRICE LISTS: If you do not intend to plant bulbs this year, you will 
do us and one of your friends a favor by passing this list on to 
another gardener. 
PLANTING TIME. All bulbs on our list should be planted in the fall 
before the ground freezes. We start to ship our accumulated daf- 
fodil orders about September Ist. The other kinds of bulbs are im- 
ported from Holland, and of course we cannot begin to ship them 
until they come, which is usually about October Ist. It is usually 
October 15th before our iris arrive from Holland. 
BULB SHIPPING TIME is rush time for us. So we must ask you to 
favor us with patience. It is to your advantage to order as early 
as you can and we will do all possible to get the bulbs to you at the 
time you prefer.
