A FEW OFFHAND REMARKS 
Greetings to all our “Glad” friends who receive our catalog. We highly ap- 
preciate your liberal patronage of 1954 and previous years. We trust that you were 
more than pleased with buibs received and the handling of your order. If ever 
you should have any complaint in regard to our bulbs or our service, let us know 
and we will try and make any reasonabie adjusimenits. We had a wondertul sea- 
son in 1954 and have an extra good quality oi stock to oifer in 1955. 
Many of our customers are telling us they buy extra bulbs so they can have 
enough flowers to send their triends when ill or hospitalized; for parties and other 
social functions, and aiso some wish to supply their church organization with flow- 
ers for Sunday service decoration. For these latter cuStomers we include an extra 
bonus of bulbs to help in the good cause. 
Time spent in the flower garden in sun and fresh air, are well repaid in health, 
happiness and the joy of living, together with the pleasure of accomplishment and 
contact with creation of beauty and inspiration. 
There are many new faces among the varieties we offer this year, and we must 
mention a few that we especially liked and would be pleased to have you try. 
Andrena is perhaps our most beautiful giad in orchid and white, with Crusader 
in white and purple. Dark David in maroon, King David and The Rajah, in purple, 
are all that could be asked for. Fire-Light in scarlet and Garnet Glow are two 
charming numbers in shades or red. Necia, an Australian import in deep rosy 
pink and Rosy Future in cerise rose are both exquisite. Sundance a medium 
ruffled yellow with 24 bud spike, promises to be one of the top in that shade. Sky- 
lark, in golden orange, with yellow throat is our best of its color to date. These, 
together with many others among more recent introductions are “must haves’.
