To Help You Solve New Problems

FALL brings new problems to the florist this year; but it is a mistake to magnify them unduly. By the embargo against imported narcissi, production programs in many greenhouses have been dis- turbed; but it will not be difficult to make adjustments which will leave sales volumes unaffected. Good business demands that in place of imported Narcissi, for major dependence, some crop shall be grown which is of known forcing value and sure sale. Such crops are found in the varied list of materials with which all florists have had experience; especially Freesias, early flowering and Darwin Tulips and Hyacinths and the attractive variety of flowers from seed which are gaining so rapidly in popularity.

American Grown Narcissi

Enterprise suggests that a trial be made of American grown Narcissi, for the accumulation of experi- ence to guide one in another year when the supply may be larger, prices lower and the quality of American grown bulbs sufficiently established to justify a return to former production programs.

For such a trial, we offer American grown Narcissi of the best quality obtainable. Though we are undertaking the production of Narcissi in this country, we offer no bulbs of our own growing this year, except mixed hardy Daffodils for outdoor planting. In offering stock for forcing we have preferred to act in the impartial attitude of agent for our customers. Mr. Edward Goldenstein, manager of our bulb department, has traveled from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean and south to Florida to inspect Narcissus plantations, and from the available stocks has obtained the cream to offer you.

Let Vaughan Service Protect You

Good news comes from Holland, where the crops of Dutch bulbs are excellent both in quantity and quality. Upon imported bulbs, this fall as always, the chief reliance of florists must be placed. For 50 years we have supplied the most critical of florists with forcing bulbs of which the quality is assured by our long experience in importing and knowledge of sources; and the price by our cash buying power and convenient shipping centers in the two great importing and distributing centers — Chicago and New York.

The prices in this catalogue are subject to change without notice. Those florists who placed their orders with us before May 1st will be invoiced at early import prices.

Hyacinths Dutch-Grown (Single)

French Roman Hyacinths

French crops are apparently lighter each year and prices higher. It is very useful for all who grew for their own retail cut-flower work for winter bloom. Growers find these useful at holidays.

Grow in flats and use for cutting same as Paper Whites. Fine for design work.

We can offer the following sizes: Per 100 Per 1000

White Roman Hyacinths, 12 ctms. & up. . .$11.00 $100.00

Colors 7.50 70.00

It will be a mistake for any florist to minimize the importance of hyacinths in his production program this year. The embargo against narcissi removes an important competitor in the plant market ; and bulbs are of excellent quality and lower in price than last year. For Easter and Mothers’ Day they will be sure of a profitable sale.

The importance of buying bulbs of known value is apparent to anyone. Our bulbs are sold by centimeter measure, which provides the surest indication of forcing quality. Do not compare our prices with the “first,” “second” or “third” size bulbs of no certain meas- ure. The supply is reported to be normal, with less of the specu- lation which forced prices up a year ago. We strongly advise a liberal use of hyacinths.

Lilium Giganteum

Owing to the unsettled condition of the Lilium Giganteum mar- ket, at the time this catalog goes to press, we are not pricing this item. They will, however, be somewhat lower than last year. Our customers may depend not only upon the best market prices, but on guaranteed grading — a vital point. Our arrangements in Japan provide for selection of sound, well-shaped bulbs. Crescent -shaped, malformed and undersized bulbs are taken out. If any of our cases reach you with undergraded or inferior lily bulbs in them, ask us at once for disposition and we guarantee they shall be graded to match

exactly the sizes we invoice.

Formosum Cold Storage 10 Days

Growers must not force Formosum in great heat. A cool house, 60 to 65 degrees, with plenty of moisture is better, but they will certainly do best when grown in pots. The so-called Formosum seems to be a class rather than a single type, and starts into growth irregularly, so if in pots they can be shifted into sections repre- senting varying heights to give proper light and watering.

N. B. — Ten days in cold storage before planting is sure to

benefit the crop. 100 Case

Lily of the Valley

In packing and grading the Lily of the Valley Pips for our trade, pips of one type and style of growth, raised on the same soil, will be branded separately, so that the customer receiving a certain number and brand from us, and forcing it to his satisfaction can depend on the same grade right along until sold out and will be advised by us when the grade is changed. This, we believe, will be much more satisfactory to the forcer than the former indiscriminate method of delivering all kinds and shapes of Valley under one brand, the planter never knowing what kind of a pip would open up in the next case received.

Our quality has never been better but, as usual, orders should be placed early to secure same. Prices ready in November.

Narcissus Paper White Grandiflora

	*,	2 3 4	1 ' 1 2 a 4
		Our American Grown Paper Whites, Showing	the Flower Stems Well Developed for Early Forcing

AS SOON as the embargo against the importation of narcissus bulbs was made certain we began a painstaking investigation of available American supplies, in order to assure our cus- tomers of the best stocks to be had. Every section of the country where narcissi are being grown, from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, was visited by the manager of our bulb department.

We have selected our American grown Paper Whites with the same care that we have learned to take in purchasing imported bulbs; keeping in mind the requirements of the greenhouse forcer. We have chosen the stock of growers of experience, whose technical ability has been demonstrated, who are in locations of favorable soil and climate and whose stocks have been tested for forcing. And, above all, we have chosen stocks that are free from insects and disease and will not have to be given the heat treatment before shipment. Our narcissus bulbs will carry certificates under the federal quarantine giving them a clean bill of health. We caution florists against buying for forcing purposes narcissi which have re- ceived heat treatment.

The fields from which our bulbs come were inspected at flowering time, to insure true type; and a further inspection was made at harvesting time. Grading has also had our personal attention. Our Paper White bulbs will come from selected fields in California and South Carolina and the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. These stocks have all been tested for forcing in soil and in water and the reports from such tests are that while flowering somewhat later than im- ported bulbs, results are equally good.

We request that in ordering from this stock you give us the privilege of filling with the next lower size, if we cannot furnish the exact size ordered.

Hardy Narcissi

What we have said above about Paper Whites is also true about our hardy Narcissi. Besides growing 25 acres on our own farms we have contracted with growers in the States of Illinois, Washington, Oregon and Michigan. Their fields have also been inspected by our bulb manager and each case supplied to our customers will bear a certificate of inspection as to their condition. Florists inMinneapolis, Missouri, Illinois and New York have tried bulbs from these sources and were well satisfied. We suggest you try a few this year, then next year you will be better prepared to increase your plantings.

Bulbs 3 inches and more and are sure bloomers.

Make wonderful window displays.

White Calla

(Aethiopica)

These can be grown at less expense during the winter months, re- quiring less heat than other lilies.

Callas being natives of swampy regions grow to best advan- tage where there is an abundance of moisture, and are therefore very difficult to handle in the curing. Some growers practice prema- ture cutting off the tops, expose bulbs to the sun, in order to make early shipment. This is very dangerous and will cause dry rot.

We therefore take great pains in securing our stock from growers in California who do not use this practice. Our stock is thoroughly cured in the ground and dried thoroughly before they are packed. This, of course, means later delivery but better results can be obtained from such bulbs.

We caution forcers of Callas to water this stock sparingly after planting because Calla bulbs store up considerable moisture.

GREVILLEA Robusta (Silk Oak). These plants give gracefulness to a window or porch box when used in connection with Geraniums or other stock. Here they often take the place of a Boston Fern; answer the purpose every bit as well and make a fine showing all summer, doing well in full sunlight and holding out in the shade during fall and winter. You will find the 2 or 234-inch plants just the thing for the center of a fern dish in case a customer does not want to pay for the more expensive Cocos. Plants in 334- inch pots fill in nicely in a plant basket arrangement, around the holidays, or you can use them for the filling of plant boxes for the window or enclosed porch. Sow the seed now. They like a well drained, rather sandy soil and while they don't make as fast a growth as in a cool house, the plants are really better off grown in a Carnation house during the winter than in warmer quarters.

DWARF ORNAMENTAL POMEGRANATE

ORNAMENTAL POMEGRANATE

A New Christmas Plant

This is our last Fall's introduction. We are not familiar with the culture of this plant and suggested sowing the seed in January. We found since that the seed germinates very slowly and irregularly, and that real good plants are not obtainable if sown so late, so we suggest to our customers to make a sowing in July or August and we feel that better results will be obtained.

The seedlings should not be pricked off into 2-inch pots until they show character leaves.

Next spring as soon as the weather warms up sufficiently, they could be shifted to cold frames in the full rays of the sun and brought back into a forcing temperature about the last week in August and ' ‘forced" in a temperature of 60 to 65 degrees for the Christmas trade. They come into flower early, but the first flowers should be kept "nipped" until well on in September when they will begin to take on a general crop which will make them salable in December and for several months following. 200 seeds, $1.00; 1,000 seeds, $4.50.

Ornamental and Flowering Shrubs

Our shrubs are Nursery-grown and are transplanted every two or three years. They are nice, shapely bushes with plenty of good fibrous roots, and are such plants as are in demand by the first-class retail trade. They should not be com- pared to stock that is never moved from the cutting or seedling beds until sold.

Our Nursery is located at Western Springs, 15 miles west of Chicago on the C. B. & Q. R. R., two blocks south of 47th street, on the continuation of East Boulevard.

Visitors are invited to inspect our stock at any time. We have a choice lot of specimens such as are not usually seen. Our customers will be pleased with the class of stock we send them.

Shipping Directions: All stock is sold F. O. B., Western Springs. Packing charges to be added on all orders for shrubs, dormant roses, fruits, trees and vines, at cost. Always give full and explicit shipping directions, as our respon- sibility ends on delivery to the express or freight office in good condition. All

trees, shrubs and plants shipped subject to customer assuming risk re- garding their own State Nursery Inspection Regulations. Certificate furnished with each shipment.

Where personal selection of stock is made at our Nursery we charge according to its value.

Light in Weight, Alluring in Appearance, a Silent Salesman Irresistible

=No Investment, No Expense, and a Good Profit-

A Display Which Will Ornament Your Store

AUGHAN'S SEED STORE'S patented poster seed racks are made of heavy mat board, of negligible weight, with standard paper easels; exactly like the advertising cut-outs which you use in window and counter displays. They are faced with brilliant colored designs as illustrated, the work of high class artists, printed in colors on enamel paper, and varnished. The colored flower and vegetable packets are inserted in pockets, so arranged that half of the packet is visible, directly in the line of vision as the light racks stand on the counter. No garden lover can resist the temptation to pick the packets from the rack; and once in her hand, the sale is easy.

New Racks, New Seeds, and a New Sales Appeal

These beautiful racks with their brilliantly colored packets are bright, fresh and clean each season. And racks and packets unite in selling the real merchandise of the seedsman, which is not seeds at all, but the things seeds grow into. The glorious colors and imaginative designs of this display sell the garden and its bounty; they visualize the dreams that bring seed customers into your store; they have a sales appeal that cannot fail.

This seed display is yours without investment and without expense. It comes by parcel post, as its weight is negligible. Only the unsold packets are returned to us, for credit to your account ; the racks are destroyed to be replaced with new ones the next season. You get 40% commission on the packets you sell.

Reserve Your Assortment for 1927

Our output for 1927 will be limited and orders are being taken rapidly. Send in a contract now to insure an assortment. Whether you handle bulk seeds, oryour own packets; or the commission boxes of other houses, you need Vaughan's display. It will help sell all your stock; and you are welcome to the help.
