MEMO TO GARDEN CLUB PRESIDENTS: 
Many Garden Clubs have already enjoyed visiting our greenhouses, 
and we welcome any of you who would like to plan such a trip. Some 
groups have made reservations in advance for luncheon at the charming 
General Lyon Inn here in Eastford, and then toured our greenhouses in 
the afternoon. We are open from 7 A. M. to5 P. M., six days a week. Eve- 
nings by appointment ONLY. We are CLOSED ALL DAY SUNDAY. 
If you contact us in advance we can advise you of the best time for a 
good display. 
We also have two sets of kodachrome slides 2’ x 2’’. One set on 
Gloxinias and one set on African Violets. We will loan these slides for use 
at your Club meetings. There is a minimum handling charge of $2.00 for 
each set. 
If your club is interested in buying a substantial quantity of Gloxinia 
tubers write us asking about our special Garden Club discount. 
If you have members particularly interested in African Violets they 
might be interested to know that we grow over 170 varieties which we 
sell at the greenhouse.
