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

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



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



We send plants by mail if desired, but earnestly advise that wherever there is an Express 

 Office, plants should never be sent by mail, as we not only send larger and finer plants when sent 

 by express, but they arrive in better condition, and we always add enough gratis to cover express 

 charges. 



It will be to the interest of purchasers to leave the selection of varieties to us, as it is difficult 

 «o judge of the merits of vaiieties by descriptions. 



"We invite attention to the extensive variety of plants offered in this Catalogue, and to a com- 

 parison of prices. Our rates, we claim, average less than half that of the prices for plants charg- 

 ed by the leading florists of London, Edinburgh or Paris; a most casual examination will cor- 

 roborate this assertion. 



W® Charge for Boxes, Bashets, or Padd&g. 



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

 ence, will be sent by express, G. 0. D. We make no deviation from this rule. 



Remittances made by Draft, Registered Letter, or Post-office Order, at our risk. 



To those who have not before dealt with us we may say that we are also largefy engaged in 

 the Seed Business; our extensive greenhouses and grounds give us peculiar advantages as Seeds- 

 men, as we are thus enabled to practically test not only the germinating qualities of all seeds 

 before offering them for sale, but it also enables us to test the claims to merit of new varieties. 

 This we find to be more and more necessary every season, as our " European Novelties" increase 

 in number. 



All our customers may have our 



Beei Catalogue Free ? on Application, 



Plants and Seeds may be sent in the same package when desired, thereby saving additional 

 express charges, but the orders should be made out on separate order sheets. 



On the following pages will be found an extract from my new book, "Gardening for 

 Pleasure." The price of the book is $1.50. To all purchasers of $10.00 worth of plants, or up- 

 wards, it will be sent gratis. When the book is not wanted, the value will be sent in extra plants. 



Persons wishing to examine stock should call at our Seed Store, 35 Cortlandt Street, New 

 York, where a card with directions will be given to reach the Greenhouses at Jersey City 

 Heights. Tims from Seed Store, 30 minutes by steam cars, or 40 minutes by horse cars. I may 

 here say, that parties wishing to see me personally, will find me at the greenhouses until 12 M., 

 and at my office in New York from 1:30 to 3, P.M.
