To My Friends and Patrons: 
Please accept this my 1955 catolog with my personal greetings and 
best wishes for a Happy and Prosperous year and a good one for farm and 
garden. 
Last year we had our ups and downs but the average results from both 
farm and gardens were good even tho we went through three Hurricanes. 
We have a good supply of all kinds of seeds and plants this year for 
your Farm, Garden, Lawn and Flower beds and would be pleased to receive 
your orders, and assure you of our very best attention to them. Of course we 
hope to see you at the place when the plants and seeds are in season. 
This is the year to set out Strawberry Plants. We have a good supply 
of them especially the plants grown from Virus Free stock and of the ever popular 
Robinson. 
Our Asparagus Roots are better than ever and am sure they would 
give you the very best satisfaction for your garden or field. The Mary Washington 
we know is good and the new Califorina ''500"' is said to be an improved strain. 
See the picture on Page 41 which gives you an idea of the fine growth our | yr. 
old roots made. 
The very best grade of Grass Seed is still high. We have made the 
price as reasonable as possible considering quality and the permanent varieties 
of grass seed that we use. Good lawns are only secured by using good seed, 
good fertilizer and good care. We have the right kinds of seed and fertilizer 
and you will have to do the rest. 
We specialize in the finest Rose Bushes, Geraniums, Pansy and Petunia 
plants for your flower beds, and Cabbage, Lettuce and Tomato plants for your 
garden. Of course, we have many other kinds of plants So for best results buy 
at Sterlings on Sterling Lane. 
Yours for the best in Seeds and Plants,
