PETER HENDERSON'S WHOLESALE MONTHLY LIST OF PLANTS. 



Please Read this carefully before Ordering". 



Our Plant Department last year embraced 120,000 square feet of glass. This 

 season 1882, over 1,200 sashes have been added, so that to-day our Plant Department covers 

 nearly four acres solid in glass, probably double in extent that of any other establishment on 

 this Continent. Our Greenhouses being arranged so that they can be graded to any tempera- 

 ture, the most perfect health and vigor possible is given to the Plants, and with these unsur- 

 passed advantages we are also able to compete with any in the matter of prices. 



Orders.— Parties ordering will please make out their order, if for Plants, on Order Sheet 

 for Plants ; if for Seeds, or Florists Requisites, on Order Sheet for Seeds, etc. Though, when 

 so desired, they may be sent in the same package. 



The plants named are offered at the rates quoted, provided that not less than FIVE 

 of each class or variety is taken. No order will be filled from j>lant list in less amounts 

 than six dollars. 



The varieties must be our own selection of sorts ; for example, if twelve different kinds 

 of Eoses or Geraniums are ordered, we send twelve distinct sorts, but cannot afford the time 

 (at these low rates) to select special kinds named by the buyer. Any one wanting varieties 

 of special kinds, can order from our Descriptive Catalogue, but at retail rates, from which 

 we allow a discount of one-third. However, in ordering from this wholesale list, we give the 

 buyer the privilege of naming sorts he don't want us to send. 



Plants may be safely shipped to all parts of the country, 



AT ALL SEASONS OF THE YEAR. 



As our system of packing is so complete that, although we send out thousands of packages 

 during the coldest days in winter, we rarely have a case injured when sent by express. 



All goods are sent by express, unless specially ordered otherwise. 



To places where there are no express offices, we will send all plants named in this list by 

 mail, at an advance of one-third on the prices named ; thus, if 100 plants, costing $6, are 

 wanted, we will send them for ^S, prepaid, by mail; hut again advise, that whenever it is 

 possible, to have plants sent by express, as it is the best mode, and our light system of pack- 

 ing makes the charges comparatively low. 



No Charge for Boxes, Baskets, or Packing*. 



Orders from unknown correspondents, unless accompanied by a remittance or satisfactory city re- 

 erence, will be sent by express, C. O. D. We make no deviation from this rule. 



Remittances made in the form of Draft, Registered Letter, or Post-office Order, at our 

 risk. Bills sent in Letters unregistered, entirely at the risk of the sender. 



All purchasers of $20 worth, in one order, are entitled to a Premium of $1.50, which 

 will be sent either in additional Plants or Seeds, or in either of Peter Henderson's works, 

 "Gardening for Profit," "Practical Floriculture," or "Gardening for Pleasure," as desired, 

 or if $40 worth, " Henderson's Handbook of Plants," value $3. 



Gardening for Profit gives, in comprehensive detail, our twenty-five years experience 



in MARKET GARDENING. 



Practical Floriculture (new edition) gives, up to date, our whole experience in the 

 propagation and growing of plants during the past thirty years. 



Gardening for Pleasure is a concise compendium, giving plain details for the Culture 

 of fruits, flowers and vegetables, and general gardening, for the use of Amateur 

 Cultivators. 



Henderson'' s Handbook of Plants is a condensed encyclopedia of over 400 pages, giving 

 Botanical Classification, Propagation and Culture of nearly every known Plant in cultivation, 

 ornamental or useful, up to the present time.
