I have not endeavored to give exacting cultural and
germination requirements of seeds listed in this catalogue, as I did not feel it
would justify this use of space when such information is easily available
elsewhere. Every serious gardener should have some comprehensive horticultural
reference such as the encyclopedias of Wyman, Wise, Bush-Brown etc., to
consult for specific needs or details.
Here are a
number of books which I have found to be of particular value–not all of which
are in print, so you may need to see your rare book dealer, or write to the
