OUR OREGON GROWN "DUTCH BULBS"

We have been successfully growing and offering these bulbs to the American Trade for the past seven years, during which time our Willamette Valley grown stocks have proven to be equal in every way to the finest Holland or English product. Planted at the same time as the imported bulbs, ours will bloom from ten days to two weeks earlier, blooms for Christmas being readily possible with several va¬ rieties. Beginning with a single acre of bulbs in the fall of 1923, we have rapidly increased our stocks so that our 1930 plantings will approximate 25 acres. With more than one half of this acreage in tulips, we undoubtedly have the largest stock of these bulbs now growing in the country. The particular merit of our tulip and narcissi bulbs is that they ripen from mid June to early July, fully two to three weeks earlier than in Holland and we can make consequent earlier deliveries in this country. Narcissi bulbs grow to the finest degree of perfection here in the Pacific Nortluvest, absolutely the cream of the Amer¬ ican crop both as to size and quality. This is readily attested to by the fact that several of Hollands large'st ’bulb growers are now producing their entire stock of narcissi bulbs for the American trade here, involving approximately 500 acres. All bulbs grown at and shipped from our farm have been carefully inspected and passed in accordance with government regulations.

All stock offered and orders accepted subject to prior sale.
