Ever try Orchids on your cut-flower trade? If not, you probably haven't an accurate idea of how profitable a line they are—profitable, in bringing you the best trade of your town; profitable, in making you a patronage that holds because pleased; profitable, in the margin between the buying and selling price. In our experience with Orchids, we have learned to love them for their beauty and their com- ercial value—they are distinctive and "original," and, to those who love odd and charming things in cut flowers, no other can compare with them. Orchids are superb for floral designs and are increasing in popularity for corsage bouquets, etc. They command a much higher price tlian you can get for other flowers, and of course, the profits are correspondingly greater. We Know How to Grow Orchids—Will Supply Flowers That You Can Sell Profitably. We have been growing Orchids for several years. We started with a small stock of plants and investigated their value as commercial cut flowers. We sell the flowers principally at wholesale, but have studied the rebiil mar- ket closely. We know that Orchids sell readily and bring retail florists a good profit; they can be shipped for long distances without injury, and will stand a lot of rough handling. These and other facts have determined us to go into the business on a wider scale. We are, therefore, now ready to supply Orchid flowers to the trade at reason- able rates, securely packed to carry for long distances—a thousand miles or fur- ther without difficulty. We grow many leading commercial varieties and will quote prices and give particulars on request. When in Philadelpbta Be Sure to Look Us Heaoock's Cattleyas Will Bring Tou Profits.
