ABRiSfi^D EDITION 
DREER'S GARDEN BOOK, 1929 
It has been our aim in this edition to confine our offerings to the outstanding varieties of Vegetable seeds, Flower seeds, Dahlias, 
Roses, Gladiolus, and Hardy Perennial plants. To those who may be interested, we will be pleased to send on application a copy of 
our complete Catalogue or Garden Book for 1929. 
We take this opportunity to say that we aim to give every order, no matter how small or how large, prompt and careful attention, 
and if favored with a share of your patronage, we will do all in our power to merit a continuance of your confidence. 
The attention of our customers is respectfully called to the following directions, which will, if followed, be an 
aid to purchasers as well as ourselves : 
ORDER EARLY. —We aim to execute all orders as soon as received, but during the rush season from March to May delays are un- 
avoidable, which, however, can be largely overcome by our patrons anticipating their wants and ordering and taking delivery 
of their requirements early. 
FORWARDING. —We deliver, postpaid to any Post Office in the United States, Vegetable and Flower Seeds in packets, ounces and 
pounds, except where otherwise noted in the Catalogue. 
All Plants, Roots and Bulbs are forwarded by Express, purchaser paying charges. For those of our customers who prefer 
to receive their goods by Parcel Post, we will be pleased to forward in this manner such Plants, Roots and Bulbs as can be sent 
in this way at the additional cost noted below to cover postage and special packing which must be added to the value of each 
order for Plants, Roots or Bulbs:

LOCAL DELIVERY.— We deliver goods free in Philadelphia. We can also forward by Package System (Baggage Master) to points 
where this system is in operation, such goods as will be received by them at the following charges. Packages weighing when packed 
for shipment not over 10 pounds, 12 cts.; not over 25 pounds, 18 cts.; not over 40 pounds, 24 cts.; not over 55 pounds, 30 cts. 
PACKING. —No charge is made for boxes or packing on Express or Freight shipments nor for Delivery to Freight Depot or Express 
Offices in Philadelphia. 
SAFE ARRIVAL OF PACKAGES. - We guarantee the safe arrival of all goods sent by Express or Mail to points within the United 
States. If a package sent by Express or Mail is injured or lost we will replace it as soon as informed of the fact. Goods sent in 
any other way are solely at purchaser's risk. Frequently it happens that orders never reach us or are without signature. When 
customers fail to receive their packages in a reasonable time they should inform us, and at the same time send a copy of their 
order and any other information necessary to trace the goods. Claim for damage must be made on receipt of goods. We do not 
hold ourselves responsible for failures after delivery of the goods in good condition. 
ERRORS. — We exercise the utmost care in filling orders striving to do a little more than we offer; yet in the press of business errors 
sometimes occur, in which event we wish to be promptly notified of the fact, and will make such corrections as will be satisfactory. 
Please keep copies of all your orders for comparison. 
REMITTANCES should be made by Post Office Money Order, Bank Draft, or Express Money Orders. We disclaim all responsibility 
when remittances are not made as above directed. Where it is not possible to obtain these, the letter should be registered. Coin 
should not be sent by mail. 
CASH WITH ORDER. —Please send money with the order sufficient to cover the whole bill. We decline sending goods "Collect on 
Delivery" unless remittance be made on account to guarantee acceptance. 
NAME AND ADDRESS. -Please remember to write on each order your NAME, POST OFFICE, COUNTY and STATE, also 
give number of street or P. O. Box as distinctly as possible; also the NEAREST EXPRESS OFFICE, or, if on a stage route, 
send us special directions. 
NON- WARRANTY. — Most of the failures with seeds, plants and bulbs are due to causes entirely beyond our control, such as unfavor- 
able weather or soil conditions, too deep or too shallow planting, etc., which renders it impossible for us to guarantee success, and 
although we take all possible care to supply only such goods as will, under proper conditions, produce satisfactory results, we 
still give no warranty as to description, quality or productiveness of any of the seeds, plants or bulbs we send out, and will not 
be in any way responsible for the crop, and every order for articles named in this catalogue will be executed on these conditions 
only. It must, however, be plain to every one who gives the matter the slightest thought that it is to our best interests to send 
out only such stock as will not only grow, but prove true to name and description.
