No. 13 — All Ruffles Collection 
Do you like the frilled and ruffled varieties? We have so many 
customers that prefer only the ruffled ones that we are offering 
this collection of 20 varieties, either labeled or in an assort- 
ment. However, you better have them labeled, and we will put 
in 20 8-inch garden stakes so you can mark them. More interest 
is developed where you can see the names as they bloom. And 
then you may find some one or more varieties that you espe- 
cially like and want to order more. Varieties will be made up 
partly of comparatively new varieties as well as the better 
standard ones. 
5 Bulbs Each of 20 varieties, plus 2 bulbs of 
Crystal Orchid, labeled, with 20 garden stakes.
