WY. E are now busy propagating and filling our houses with a selection of the most desirable
i if varieties of Roses, Fucusias, GERANIUMS, &c., ready for next seasons trade, and will
soon commence printing our Llustrated Catalogue for 1889, of which we will probably
print 50,000 copies, for free distribution. We shall endeavor to make it more attractive both in
varieties and prices than any former issue. At the request of many of our patrons we have de-
cided to offer a select list of Choice Vegetable Seeds, in connection with Flowers.
A FAVOR ASKED CF YOU.
We would be pleased to have you send us the names and addresses of a few of your lady
friends who take an interest in Floriculture, that we may send to each a copy of our next Cata-
logue when issued. We ask this favor of you because we believe you will be interested in the
matter enough to send us the names of only such as will be likely to want choice flowers.
WE WILL PAY YOU FOR YOUR TROUBLE.
We do not ask you to do this favor for nothing, but will pay you by adding some choice Bulbs
or Plants with your order. If you do not wish to order anything irom us this fall, please send
the names at once, and at any future time when you order Plants or Seeds please mention the
fact that you sent us names and we will add Plants in payment.
BE VERY PARTICULAR.
Please be careful when sending the names to send only names of persons who buy and culti-
vate flowers. Our Catalogues cost a great deal and we wish them placed where they will be
most likely to secure us orders. We would rather have the names of only four or five who are
interested, than a whole page of those who take no interest in growing flowers.
Write the Names and Addresses plainly, on the back of this sheet. We would
prefer to have them from as many different Post Offices as possible.

/ ‘ hile we are admiring our beautiful Flower Beds
ives { and Gardens, we should not forget that winter is
iy, ae fast approaching, and that if we desire any choice
— Flowers to help make the long dreary months
os more endurable, we should commence now. To this end
we have prepared and herewith present this, our Av-
Y.TUMN CATALOGUE, in which will be found a list of the
“most desirable and popular varieties of Bulbs and Plants
suitable for Winter Blooming; also Hardy Bulbs for
‘planting in the Garden.
4“ The past season has been a very busy and pleasant one to
\ us. Gathering, packing and forwarding thousands of orders,
¥ made up of hundreds of varieties of Plants, Seeds, ete., to all parts
\ of the country from Maine to Oregon, keeps us very busy. The
f \ \ almost marvelous increase of business and the thousands of encouraging
#i\\ lines from our patrons, praising our Plants and perfect system of packing, are
most gratifying to us. It is a pleasure to know that our efforts to send out first
class Plants at reasonable prices are being appreciated.
\ Nee We are often asked which is the best plant for winter blooming. If we could
i * have but one kind it would be the Hyacinth. It is of the easiest culture and invar-
i iu iably gives satisfaction. The Early Tulip, Crocus, Narcissus, Lily, Freesia, and
many other varieties of Bulbs and Plants are quite satisfactory for winter blooming.
We give directions on next page for the treatment of Hyacinths, which will apply to all other
Bulbs intended for winter blooming. There are many Plants, such as Roses, Geraniums, Carna-
tione, Helliotropes, Begonias, etc. etc., that if potted now, kept growing nicely, and not allowed
to bloom, will be in a condition to bloom quite freely in the winter. However, plants of any kind
to bloom in winter, must have plenty of light, heat, and pure air, and an occasional sprinkling of
water. Weshould imitate Nature as nearly as possible; bearing in mind that in the Summer
we have the bright, warm sunshine, with plenty of fresh air, dew, rain, ete. Don’t expect a
plant to bloom in winter if placed in a dark corner, where they could not bloom in sumer.
Ordering Plants in Autumn. To those having a conservatory or pit, in which
they can winter plants safely, we would recommend the Autumn as the most desirable time to or-
der; especially Roses. They will become well established and are ready to bloom at once when
Spring comes. Try it once and be conyinced. ;
Pansy Seed, If sown at once, will make nice young plants that will be in prime condi-
tion for blooming in early Spring. Everybody that reads this should try a packet of our Choice
Pansy Seed. We confidently believe them to be the best mixture offered in this country. For
full description see inside cover page.
Our Bulbs Too Cheap. We frequently receive letters from parties who say they
are afraid our bulbs are not good, because they are so much che iper than others. For the bene-
fit of such persons we herewith print a copy of a letter received from our growers in Holland,
which will, we believe, satisfy all as to the quality of our Bulbs.

Dear Sirs :-— We acknowledge receipt of your esteemed order for Bulbs, which again shall
have our special attention in the selection of our usual superior strain of Bulbs. Weare gratified
to learn that the bulbs sent have proved satisfactory and shall, if possible, improve thereon.

ne Oo hin!
/\ f all the varieties of flowering bulbs the HyacrnTH is the
}most beautiful and fragrant. No other plant is so well
adapted to winter blooming. It is cultivated in every
Northern country, where it does more than any other
flower to make winter cheerful.
For winter blooming they may either be grown in pots as
other plants, or in glasses of water. . A small pot will answer,
but some prefer to plant three or four together in a large pot;
= in either case fill the pot with sandy, porous soil, plant the
Kk @ bulbs by pressing them down into the soil so that only a little
7 of the bulb will show above the soil. Now water them freely
and set away in a cool, dark cellar for several weeks, where
they will make plenty of roots, but the top will grow but Iit-
tle. They may then be removed to a warm room, a few at a
time, that they may be had to bloom in succession. By a
warm room we mean from 60 to 70 degrees, but not above 70.
When grown in glasses the base of the bulb should just
a touch tke water; it will soon evaporate so that the water is a
“WML little below the bulb, which is as it should be. Set away in a
“ cool place, same as when grown in pots.

As soon as the buds begin to show give plenty of light and
air, and keep them moist by an occasional sprinkling with
water. No Hyacinth ean do itself justice if grown in a hot,
SINGLE HYACINTH. dry atmosphere. When once in full bloom they will keep
fresh much longer if removed to a cool room, just so they do not freeze.
For beds of early flowers in the garden or on the lawn, they have
no equal. They should be planted in September, October or No-
vember, in rich, deep soil, and about four inches deep.. Be sure to
cover well with leaves or straw, to keep from freezing too severely.
Hyacinth flowers may be cut freely, without injury to the bulbs;
indeed, all flower stalks should be removed as soon as the flowers
begin to fade. In about five or six weeks after flowering, or when
the leaves are turning yellow, the bulbs should be taken up, dried,
and packed away in paper bags or boxes, for planting again in the
fall. If the beds are needed for other flowers, as is generally the
case, the bulbs may be removed in about two weeks after the flow-
ers have faded; in this case, after removing the flower-stems, if it
has not been done before, place the bulbs on a dry bed in the gar-
den, and cover with a little earth, leaving the leaves exposed. Here
they can remain until the leaves have ripened, when they are ready
to be packed away for fall planting, or can remain where they are
until needed.
All the Hyacinth Bulbs that are sold in this country are grown in
Holland. Their soil and climate seems to be peculiarly adapted to their
culture. While they will grow and bloom quite freely from year to year ...
in any garden, they do not produce as large and fine trusses of flowers =
after the first season. Therefor, we should always use Imported Bulbs
for forcing or winter blooming, which when through blooming should be
allowed to grow for three or four weeks, after which they can be stored away and planted in the
garden the following autumn, where they will bloom from year to year.

EREAFTER we shall not offer a long
list of Named Varieties, as we can see
no advantage in paying from 20 to 25
cents each for named bulbs, when our Seleet-
ed Unnamed Bulbs will give about as good
satisfaction, at only one-half the price of named
varieties.
We order our Bulbs direct from the growers in
Ho.uanp, and when placing our order we were very por
ticular to order only Selected Bulbs, and to have each sha: e
or color separate, so that our patrons can get the colors they’
desire without ordering the more expensive named varieties.
It will be seen that we have also kept separate those intended
for Forcing or pot culture, and those intended for Bedding or gar-
den culture. The reason for this is, that many varieties are spec-
ially adapted to pot culture, while others that are adapted to bed- |
ding would be a failure if grown in pots. DOUBLE & SINGLE HYACINTHIS.
When ordering be particular to state whether wanted for I’ot culture, or Bedding. Also state
what colors you prefer.

is so perfectly hardy, flour-
ishes so well under ordinary taaat-
ment, and is so varied and brilliant,
that it never fails to give entire sat-
isfaction. Nothing in the floral world can
surpass the dazzling brilliancy and gorge-
ousness of a bed of choice Tulips. They
are dashing and showy, of the most brilliant, varied snd
delicate coloring ; making them desirable even as single
specimens, but it is when grown in masses that the finest
effect is produced.
Any good garden soil will do for Tulips. A very rich
good before planting. Make the soil deep and fine. Set the early flowering varieties five inches
apart, the late varieties six inches ; cover about three inches deep.
After Tulips have done blooming they can be taken up and planted close together in any cor-
ner of the garden until it is time to replant in the Fall, or Verbenas or other bedding plants can
be set out between the rows, and before they cover the ground the leaves of the Tulips will be
sufficiently ripe to be removed and the ground raked off.
A good sized bulb, when planted in the Autumn, will bloom the following Spring, when the
bulb planted decays, and gives place to one or more new ones that will bloom the next sea-
son. These may be taken up or allowed to remain in the ground. As the new bulbs have no
roots, removal does not injure flowering in the least, though unless replanted pretty early in the
Autumn, those allowea to remain in the ground will bloom a few days earlier. This is also true
| of Hyacinths, and all bulbs that are taken up and allowed to become dry.
| Tulips are divided into several classes, including both early and late ; the early varieties flow-
er here in April, but by a careful selection of early and late varieties they may be had in bloom
| for more than a month.
| We do not offer named Tulips, because the unnamed bulbs are just as large and fine, and will
produce just as fine flowers, and at a much less cost. They embrace many showy varieties of
) all colors. and will make a brilliant, showy bed.
TULIPS FOR POT CULTURE. For forcing or pot culture the Due Van Thols and Sin-
gle Early are the best. By giving them the sanie treatment as recommended for Hyacinths they
may be nad to bloom quite successfully in Winter. .

moist and shady situation.

ing, as they can easily be forced into bloom during the
winter months. The treatment of Hyacinths will apply to

Crocuses are very interesting flowers, being
very delicate and tasteful in form, also varied
and gay in colors. They begin to show their —
leaves before the frost has fairly left the ground
in the spring, and in sheltered situations in this
latitude, will sometimes bloom in March, al-
though in April is the season of their greatest
beauty. For several weeks, or until the flower-
ing of the Hyacinth, through the most change-
able and unpleasant of the spring weather, the
garden depends almost alone on the Crocus for
its beauty and brightness.
Crocuses must be planted in the autumn; the
bulbs should be planted about three inches apart
each way, and about two inches deep, or they
may be planted in the sod of the lawn, where
they will remain for years and give the lawna
beautiful appearance when in bloom. ‘They al-
so do well ‘for winter blooming; requiring the
same treatment as Hyacinths.

This is one of the grandest acquisitions to-our list of Forcing Bulbs that has been made for
many years. It is by far the most popular variety in cultivation for winter blooming, and is
grown in large quantities for Church decorations at Easter. It is of very easy culture and ean
be readily grown in any ordinary room where any other plants will thrive. The bulbs should be
potted during September or October, in six-inch pots, and the pot plunged in the ground in a
moist, shady situation, where they will soon fill the pot with roots. When winter approaches
remove them to the room where they are to grow and bloom. They will come into bloom in
about ten weeks. If wanted to bloom in the spring, remove to the cellar until needed ; always
start them about ten weeks before the flowers are wanted.
They are perfectly hardy, and therefor, very desirable for out-door planting, and may remain
without being disturbed for years. They prefer a shady situation.
The bulbs we offer are strictly first class in every respect ; being from four to seven inches in
circumference.

: LL. Auratum. The ‘‘Gold Banded Lily’’
of Japan. This is unquestionably the best
, Lily grown. It is perfectly hardy, and will
<tthrive in any good garden soil. A good

ers; each flower being from eight to ten
nches in diameter. Color, pure white, with
a beautiful golden band through the centre
of each petal, and heavily dotted and splash-
d with velvety brownish crimson spots.
The flowers are very fragrant. One of the
most beautiful flowering plants we ever saw
>was an Auratum Lily that had been growing
‘for several years without being disturbed.
iIt had several stems about four feet high,
each bearing from fifteen to twenty-five large
‘flowers and buds. They delight in a light,
rich soil and a cool, shady situation. Great
{care should be taken to select a place where
water will not stand around the bulbs in the
‘winter, as that would be sure destruction.
They should be planted about eight inch-
es deep, in deep, rich soil, and in a shaded
E situation, as they dislike our dry hot sun.

blooming continually, Winter and Summer. The flow-

HE GERANIUM is the most popular flowering plant
grown. Everybody grows them, because they will
grow and bloom with iess care than almost any oth-
er plant. What is more beautiful than a bed of Ger-
aniums? It is a dazzling sight irom June to Novem-
Oer. No plant enjoys our hot summer’s sun better than
the Geranium. Geraniums are also admirably adapted
for winter blooming, if grown in pots, and not allowed to
bloom in summer. :
In no class of plants has there been greater improve-Egé
ments than in Geraniums, especially so in the double
varieties; we now have them in as great a variety as the
SINGLE. single ones, DOUBLE.
We believe we have as fine a collection as can be procured anywhere. Our Geranium beds last sum-
mer were admired and praised by all whosawthem. Parties not acquainted with the different varieties
will do well to leave the selection with us; stating if wanted for bedding or pot culture.

‘THE Rosk is the “Queen of Flowers.” No garden, however small, is complete without Roses. There
are no flowers grown that are more universally admired than the Rose, and their cultivation is yearly ex
tending, as it becomes more generally known that they are so easily grown, and that they can be procured
at so trifling an expense. All that is necessary is to plant them in a bed of deep, fresh, loamy soil, wellen
riched with thoroughly rotted manure, and they are as certain to do well as a bed of Geraniums.
Roses of different species are to be found in all the principal countries, except Australia; none as yet
having been discovered there. We are, however, indebted to China, India and Persia for the finest spe-
cies. Nothing definite is known of the early history of the Rose, asto when it was first cultivaied, etc ; al
though we find it mentioned in the earliest writings.
ROSES FOR POT CULTURE. The Monthly or Ever-Blooming Roses are the most suitable for pot
culture, as they bloom continually, if properly treated. We would especially recommend the Polyanthas,
as they are of the easiest culture, and will produce by far the most flowers. The pots should be well drain-
ed with bits of broken pots. Procure some fresh, well rotted sods, pulverize and mix with rich fresh soil
and a little well rotted cow manure. When potting be careful to press the soil firmly around the roots.
Keep them well watered during warm summer weather, but water only sparingly during fall and winter.
Give them plenty sun-light and a temperature as near 60 degrees as possible.
WHAT VARIETIES TO PLANT.—We frequently receive orders for Hardy, Ever-blooming Koses,
and when such orders come from the Southern States we can fill them to a letter; as there the different
classes of Monthly Roses are all hardy, growing and blooming all summer, and need no protection. But
when such orders come from the North, they are difficult to fill; as we have no Ever-blooming Roses that
are entirely hardy. However, we would recommend planting the Monthly varieties even in the North; as
they will bloom continually during the summer, and are more fragrant, and of more delicate colors than
the Hardy varieties. Many of the varieties are almost hardy, and can be wintered over by pinning them
down to the ground, and then covering with about six inches of leaves from the woods, witha few
old boards or brush to keep them in place; or if taken up late in the fall, trimmed back, and planted ina
box of earth and kept in a cool cellar, with just sufficient water to keep them from shriveling, they will
come out fresh in the spring and soon commence to bloom.
‘“Will your Roses bloom this year?” We are frequent asked about the size of our Roses,
and whether they will bloom the first season. In reply we would say that they are all strong and
healthy plants, grown in 2 and 2} inch pots, and will average from 6 to 8 inches in height and
are all well rooted. The Ever-blooming varieties are many of them in bloom when sent out, and
will all bloom profusely this summer.
Selection of Varieties. Those who are not acquainted with the different varieties will find
it to their interest to leave the selection of varieties to us, as we are well acquainted with the diff-
erent varieties, and will select those that will be more sure to give satisfaction. When the selec-
tion is left with us we always give extra, either in number or more valuable varieties.
Our Roses are all grown on their own roots. They are Not Grafted.

POLYANTHA ROSES. x
TOLYANTHA ROSES.—MINIATURE.
This is certainly the most desirable class of Roses ever introduced. They are what we would call every-
body’s Rose. They are exceedingly heautitul, and by far the most constant and profuse bloomers grown.
You can depend on getting fully ten flowers from them where you get one from other varieties. The flow-
ers are produced in clusters; often a hundred or more buds and flowers in one cluster. They are of dwarf
compact habit and of the easiest culture,
‘They are almost hardy, and can be wintered over anywhere,
with good protection. Uns'irpass:-d for cemetery planting. There is no plants we send out that gives as
good satisfaction as the Polyantha Roses.

body should have it. (See Cut.) 15 cents.

PRIMROSE.
Few plants give better satisfaction than
the Primrose, especially for winter blooming,
for which itis particularly adapted. It should
be kept in a cool place; a north window suits it
the best. They may be bedded out in the sum-

that will produce more flowers during the win-
ter months than the Primrose. We have a very

S)*HERE is no flower grown that is more attractive, and from which there is more real pleas-
ure derived than a good collection of Pansies; and again, there is no flower less attract-
“=A ive thana poor, inferior strain of Pansies.
There are more Pansy seed sold annually than of any other flower, and while many of them
are good and give entire satisfaction, too many of them, when they come to bloom, are a sad
disappointment.
OUR ‘‘SUPERIOR’’ PANSY SEED.
Pansy Seeds are one of our Specialties. in order to procure tiie very best seed, we have
for some time past been corresponding with all of the leading Pansy Specialisis in this country,
also in Germany, France, England, Scotland, Switzerland, &c, and asa result, we believe we
have the best strain of Pansy Seed ever offered in this country.
Why are they the best? Now, we do not claim that we grow the best; that is too common
talk; all growers claim that. They cannot all be right, but a few may be right, as some are
noted for producing the largest flowers; others produce flowers of the finest form; while others
produce the mos. briiliant colors, etc; but no grower is fortunate enough to combine all of the
good points. Now, to be certain that me have the best, we have purchased seed from each of these
Specialists, and after thoroughly mixing them, will fill the packets from this superior mixture,
so that each packet will contin an equal quantity of each. It will be readily seen that a packet
of our “‘Superior’’? Mize. Seed will contain a greater variety, and be much more interesting than
the vest seed us usually offered.
Each packet will contain 100 seed, put up from an equal mixture of all the follow-
ing Choice Strains:
Alb -rt Benz’s Popular Strain. Bugnot’s Celebrated Extra Large Stained.
Best Improved German. Cassier’s Superb Large Sta ned.
Dreer’s Royal Exhibition. Downie’s Celebrated Scotch Show & Fancy.
Freach New Giant Trimardeau. David Woodbury’s Celebrated Collection.
French Monstre. Grandifiora, or Large French Stained.
Henderson’s New Fancy. Large Yellow, Purple Stained.
Large Eagiish xybrids. Mikado.
Normandy. Odier French Blotched.
Wrede’s Celebrated German. Zirngiebel’s Improved Giant Trimardeau.
§&=- We will continue to add other Choice Strains as we can procure them.“33&
PRICE, PER PACKET OF 100 SEEDS, 25 CENTS. 5 PACKETS FOR $1.00.
NOTE. We can furnisa either of the above Strains separate if desired, at 25 cents per pkt;
but the number of seed in a packet will depend on the variety ordered, as some are much more
expensive thanothers. For example, Bugnot’s Seed cost us $35.00 per ounce, and most of the
ot.er strains cost from $8.00 to $15.L0 per ounce. We can sell ordinary good Mixed Pansy Seed
ai $1.00 to $1.4u per ounce ; sufiicient proof, we think, of the quality of our ““Superior” Seed.
£22 We wish to eall particular aitentionto DAVID WOCODBURY’S Celebrated Seed. Hehas,
probably, te finest coliection of Pansies growin in tis country, and if we may judge from a box
oj spectmen fiewers received from him last season, we do noi hesitate to recommed them, as they
were certainly the jinest we ever saw. Price, in Woodbury’s original pkts, 25 ets per pkt.

really good strain of seed at a low price. Each packet will contain an equal mixture of all the
