R. &> J. FARQUHAR & CO.'S SEED CATALOGUE 



FLOWER POTS, SAUCERS, SEED AND BULB PANS. 



Standard Flower Pots. Measurement from inside 

 to inside. Width and depth equal. 



Sizes and shapes as adopted and recommended by the Society of 

 American Florists. These pots are all full inside measurement, 

 height and width, which makes them at least one size larger than by 

 the old way of measuring. 



They are of perfect shape, with a very much needed improve- 

 ment in the drainage, by being made with a convex bottom ; or we 

 should say, with the rim or body of the Pot projecting below the 

 bottom, so that when it is set on any smooth surface, there is some 

 space between the bottom of the pot and what it stands upon. The 

 drainage is perfect. Breakage is not one-half as great as in other 

 pots, the deep rim protecting them from any ordinary hard usage. 



NEPONSET PAPER FLOWER POT, 



Unbreakable, Very Handsome, Cheap. 



We are Sole Agents for New England, for these 

 New Flower Pots. 



Manufactured from specially prepared fabric which 

 gives them all the necessary rigidity. They are abso- 

 lutely wibreakable. 



They are made so as to give ample drainage. 



Growers who have been in the habit of shipping in 

 clay pots will appreciate the immense saving insured 

 by using -"Neponset," and those who have hitherto 

 wrapped plants in paper will find that the loss of time 

 and labor in so doing will more than pay for "Neponset" 

 Pots, to say nothing of the clean, neat and handsome 

 appearance which their use insures. 



The smaller sizes are specially adapted for growing 

 slips, cuttings and young plants. Color, a handsome 

 terra cotta ; in the standard sizes of the Association 

 of American Florists. 



Weights and Prices. 



These pots nest closely 

 for shipment and are so 

 light that one thousand 

 3-in. only weigh as much 

 as one hundred and ten 

 clay pots, same size. 

 The freight is, there- 

 fore, a mere fraction. 

 The weight of " Nepon- 

 set " Pots, packed for 

 shipment inclusive of 

 crates, is —
