Dear Mrs. Hopkins: 
| thought | should write you and acknowledge the receipt 
of my order and tell you that your daffodil bulbs were the 
finest looking bulbs that | purchased this year. 
We bought daffodil bulbs from 8 different sources this year, 
all of them well known daffodil bulb specialists and without 
question your bulbs were the cleanest and finest appearing 
bulbs of them all. Your bulbs were in excellent condition 
and also of very good size. Some of the bulbs from other 
sources which were represented as A-] or top grade double 
nose bulbs were small, dirty, and spotted. A few were bruised 
and one was rotten. 
| thought that | would write to tell you how much we ap- 
preciated your fine bulbs and request your catalogue for 
1954. 
Sincerely yours, 
Professor George G. Gyrisco
