READ BEFORE ORDERING (cont.) 



PACKING AND SHIPPING. When plants are 

 shipped, the customer pays packing and shipping 

 at cost. In ordering, please add 10 percent of the 

 cost of the plants to cover packing and shipping. 

 If the actual cost differs from that 10 percent, we 

 will refund or bill you accordingly. 



MAXIMUM SHIPPING SIZE. Due to the costs of 

 packing and shipping, we do not ordinarily ship 

 plants that are more than 6 feet tall. If the 

 customer specifically authorizes it, we will in 

 appropriate cases, prune a large plant back to 

 proper shipping size. 



TELL US HOW TO SHIP. We ship by parcel post, 

 motor freight, railway express, United Parcel Ser- 

 vice and bus (Trailways and Greyhound). If you 

 desire shipment by UPS or bus, please give us your 

 telephone number. We can arrange shipment by 

 truck if the size of the order warrants paying for 

 a full load. 



PICK-UP ORDERS. If you want to pick up your 

 plants here, please place your order in advance so 

 that we can have it ready for you. 



CLAIMS AND GUARANTEE. Claims for shortages, 

 errors, or any cause, must be made within 5 days 

 after receipt of shipment. In no case are we liable 

 for more than the invoice price of the plant. We 

 guarantee to ship good, healthy stock but we do 

 not assume any risk or responsibility for trans- 

 portation, growth, or life of the plants after they 

 leave this nursery. If your plants are damaged 

 or excessively delayed in transit, make this nota- 

 tion on the carrier's delivery receipt and file a 

 claim against the carrier immediately. Please note 

 that our responsibility for delivery of your plants 

 ends upon our delivering them to the carrier.

 LAPPING. In case of those plants specifically 

 listed B&B, the prices in this catalog include the 

 cost of balling and burlapping. Others are shown 

 at bare root prices. A general guide for the addi- 

 tional charge of balling and burlapping follows:

These charges may vary depending upon the 

 variety of plant involved. 



PLANTS NOT LISTED HERE. We have many 

 plants which are not listed in the catalog because 

 they are too large to ship, or because we have them 

 in too small quantity. The large ones, in many 

 cases, would be of particular value to landscapers. 

 We welcome your inquiry for materials to meet 

 your specific needs. 



TIME OF SHIPMENT. We can ship throughout the 

 year except during extreme winter weather.
