GENERAL BULB LIST 
Since publishing our catalogue for last season, there have been very drastic 
increases in parcel post rates; but we are trying to keep our prices on bulbs very 
close to the 1952 price level. The postage increase amounted to 50%. On the other 
hand we are going to keep on prepaying shipments. However, we must ask that the 
minimum of $3.00 for prepayment be carefully observed. We guarantee all bulbs to 
be true to name and free from disease or injurious insects. Bulbs are offered, subject 
to prior sale, and bulblets will be sold in “packets” of 50 to 100 bulblets per packet. 
If bulbs are not priced per ten, such price may be found by multiplying the single 
bulb price by eight, or the price per two, by four. Five bulbs of large or medium 
sizes will be sold at the ten-price. Medium and large bulbs will provide best bloom.
