TO THE TRADE
“Optimism in the present and confidence in the future.” That seems to us a good motto to go by. Business this past year has been better than many of us perhaps looked for at the beginning —1950 will be as good or better. Cooperation locally and nation- ally will help as it always has.
We trust this catalog will be helpful and hope we may continue in receipt of your good will. If there are some items in which you are interested not listed here we will be glad to quote you specially. |
The prices will be maintained as far as possible but changes up _or down may be made by manufacturers and growers which are unavoidable.
While Fall bulb items are not listed herein—we solicit your inquiries and orders which can be placed subject to your approval of price to be advised when fixed. Early ordering is in your favor from every angle—price, first, consideration in case of shortage, etc. |

CULTURAL DIRECTIONS ON HARDY LILIES Plant bulbs immediately on arrival in a well drained soil, giving them plenty of opportunity for root action. The containers should then be set on a raised platform in a cool, semi-dark place, affording perfect drainage. When flower buds appear, the plants will then readily submit to forcing. They may also be planted out of doors for flowering in June and early July and later.

FANCY LEAVED CALADIUMS
Brighter Colors. Bigger Leaves. More Leaves.
Caladiums are easily grown but should not be put in a Carna- tion temperature. Start the bulbs in flats, turning them upside down, since this is a crown-rooting bulb and the roots come out around the top (center) eye. This direct contact with the growing medium produces roots more quickly than the opposite method. Use a mixture of one part leaf-mold, one part good garden loam, and one part peat moss or other coarse neutral material, adding a small amount of coarse charcoal or other rubble for drainage. Press the bulb halfway into the soil and place the flats under a bench. The flats can also be placed on top of the flows, but if this is done they should be shaded. The temperature should be 80 to 85 degrees or higher, as the higher the temperature, the better starting results you will have. Be careful that the flats do not dry out if placed either on the flows or returns. Water spar- ingly until the bulbs begin to sprout and have roots 4 to 6 inches long. When the sprouts begin to show place the bulbs in 5 or 6 inch pots using good rich leaf-mold. Water copiously when in full growth and use weak liquid manure once weekly if possible.
