A R Y 5 hecbiyed I Ar^dUL i 7 1931 O'- S.^partment of Agriculture. A. E. KUNDERD Goshen, Indiana U. S. A. HCo Flower J^overs T IS QUITE significant to note, especially at this time when there is a lull in business activity, that the appreciation of flowers and flower gardens is more pronounced than ever before. There was a time when only wealthy people could have beautiful yards, pools and fine evergreens. There was a time when the newer, finer things were beyond the reach of the average person. Those times are past, how¬ ever, and they should be, as flowers, plants, and trees are among God's greatest gifts to mankind and all should share them. Those who have worked among flowers and learned to appreciate their splen¬ dor can best know the truthfulness of this state¬ ment. In presenting my Peony and Iris Catalog for 1931, I wish to call attention to the important fact that Kunderd's is a house of quality. I have dealt in flowers for more than fifty years. Many are my customers and they are living in all parts of the world. In all this time I have never overlooked the importance that the best is none too good. While I have always specialized in high quality, my prices have always been most consistent, quality consid¬ ered. I have never been influenced by anything except that I should give the very best for a reason¬ able price. Upon that policy has been built the foremost institution of its kind in the world* I am aware that flower lovers desire the best they can get and that they want a large list to choose from. I wish to inform everyone that I have listed in this catalog nearly all of the varieties of merit, excepting the higher priced varieties, which have been omitted to keep this list to a minimum in size. These varieties have been obtained, sometimes at great expense, from Europe and America. This is an accomplishment of many years. My collection represents one of the largest and finest in the world. If you are interested in any varieties not listed, I will welcome your correspondence about them. There are none better and the values I offer cannot be surpassed. I take pride in present¬ ing this list and I am most happy to offer the fore¬ most varieties at moderate prices. I am sure that these outstanding varieties at the prices quoted set a new standard of value. 1 fully guarantee my stock to be the very best. When you order from my catalog, you can be sure of getting the finest quality at reasonable prices.
