FRESH PALM SEEDS. 
We have made special arrangements direct with collectors 
to take large quantities, thereby enabling us to offer them 
at much lower prices than they are usually sold at, and thus 
getting them direct, enables us to send Out fresh seed, 
which is of more importance with this class than with any 
seeds we are acquainted with. 
(@~ We fill all orders as soon as the seeds are received 
by uS WHICH NECESSARILY WILL BE AT DIFFERENT 
SEASONS as th> time of ripening varies in different species.
