LONG SEASON COLLECTION 
To have blooms of a certain variety over a long period of time we want to recommend especially one or more 
of the following Specials. These Specials consist of various sizes of bulbs of each variety. If you are not in the habit 
of buying Medium and Small bulbs you will be amazed at the fine blooms you will get from these. The medium sizes 
will bloom in about five to seven days after the large bulbs. The small bulbs in about 15 days. Thus you will have 
the same variety blooming for about 25 days or more. 
Remember each variety is one item and consists of various sizes as listed. 
Your selection of the following: Any 5 varieties, all different. Only $5.00; Any 10 For Only $9.00. Prepaid to you. 
As you will notice we have selected only the finest varieties for ihis collection and have offered them at Sensa-
