attractive prices. So 
Again Glad Morgan and the other friendly folks here at Seabrook Nurseries" 
extend to you a cordial invitation to stop at our Nurseries next summer and see 
hundreds of thousands of gladiolus in full bloom. No words can describe this sight 
of breath-taking beauty! Most visitors in July, August, and September 1953 were 
particularly interested in our trial gardens where many unnamed varieties — the | 
elads of the future — are being developed. Seabrook Nurseries are on the main line — 
of vacation travel, U. S. Route 1, near the Massachusetts state line. 
The new irrigation system installed last year has enabled us to improve our 
cultural conditions so we can now furnish you with even better bulbs than before. 
We have expanded our acreage to insure bigger supplies of wanted varieties. We still 
urge you to place orders early in order to avoid disappointment. Of course, your 
glads will be shipped to you whenever you stipulate. 
We are proud of the various awards won in 1953 shows, such as the Distinguished 
Merit Award at the New England Gladiolus Show, and a special award for a basket 
of Barbara Dee, hybridized here at Seabrook Nurseries. We are, however, even more 
proud of the unsolicited letters of enthusiastic comment from you, our customers, 
» on the manner in which our bulbs have bloomed in your gardens. We thank you. 
Cordially, 
Seabrook Nursery Folks
