Quality and Reputation 



ALL of the seeds, plants and bulbs that you purchase 

 are bought on the reputation of the seller. Even 

 the most thoroughly trained seedsman or horticul- 

 turist is unable to give a satisfactory opinion w^ithout 

 exhaustive tests, and with this fact in mind it is aWays 

 desirable to first investigate the reputation of your seeds- 

 man. The business of Peter Henderson & Co. vv^as estab- 

 lished in 1 847 and has been built to its present propor- 

 tions by the most careful attention to quality. 



The third generation of Hendersons are in charge 

 today and there is something more than just a plain busi- 

 ness relationship existing betv^een themselves, their 

 employees and their customers. When you buy Hender- 

 son's seeds you buy 69 years of experience; you buy the 

 prestige and reputation of years of successful seed raising 

 and selling; you buy seeds that have behind them the 

 sentiment brought out by many years of careful, con- 

 scientious attention to our customers and their w^ants. 

 The very smallest part of the cost is represented by the 

 seeds and it is by far the most impor- 

 tant. Try the Henderson Way this year 

 and see if there isn't a difference. 



We should be glad to send our 

 204-page catalogue w^ithout charge to 

 anyone mentioning "The Gardeners' 

 Chronicle. "
