E ISSUE our Florists' Wholesale Plant List under a separate cover from our "Wholesale Seed List, as we believe it will be more 

 convenient for florists in this form. This allows us to increase the size of the pages, give much fuller descriptions to many 



things ; more extended lists of varieties in the leading classes of platts and illustrate more freely, advantages which we trust will be 



appreciated by our florist friends. This issue will remain in force until about August 1st, when our Autumn Catalogue will be ready. 

 All offers in this catalogue are made subject to stock being unsold when the order is received, and we reserve the right to 



advance prices without notice should the available quantity of stock render it necessary. 



OUR WHOLESALE SEED CATALOGUE. Our Wholesale Catalogue of Seeds, Implements, etc., is mailed with this ; if by any 



chance you do not receive it, please notify us and we will mail you a copy.

 wanted by mail, we will send them at an advance of one-fourth 

 over the prices quoted. We make no charge for boxes, baskets 

 or packing. 



We supply everything for the Garden, Greenhouse, 

 Farm and lawn. — The fact that we can supply every want of 

 the cultivator in Seeds, Plaats, Bulbs, Tools, Fertilizers, Insect- 

 icides, &c, enables patrons to have all their goods shipped in

 press or freiarht charges.

 logue). Our greenhouses and fiamfs cover nearly four and one- 

 half acres solid in glass, being the most extensive on this 

 continent.

 knowleged if. under rare ciicumstacces. its shipment is likely to 

 be delayed. If goeds, notification of shipment or acknowledg- 

 ment of order is not received by the customer after a reasonable 

 lapse of time, it may be asfaumed that the order has miscarried,

Vi/e have secured for our 

 customers from EXPRESS 

 COMPANIES 



20 Per Cent. 



Reduction in Express Rates 

 on plants. 



Under the new ruling of the leading Express Companies, 

 advocated and secured by us, plants packed in closed boxes 

 or baskets will now be carried at the " General Special - ' rate. 

 This rate means a reduction of 20 per cent, from the regular 

 merchandise rates to all points where no "General Special" 

 exists. To points where a " General Special " rate is in force 

 the companies make a special reduction. Shipments weighing 

 less than 100 lbs. receive the benefit of the rate per 100 lbs., but 

 the minimum charge is 35c. For instance, where the regular 

 merchandise rate is $4.00 per 100 lbs., a box of plants weighing 

 100 lbs. will be carried for $3.20 ; a saving of 80c. onone shipment.
