OUR PLANT DEPARTMENT 



Is being continually enlarged by additions of the latest foreign and 

 native introductions, some of which we have not yet had an opportunity 

 of testing; they have been received from the most reliable growers, 

 experts ia their particular specialities, and are offered under their 

 descriptions. 



The general list of older varieties has been carefully revised, rejecting 

 all sorts that have not proved themselves adapted to our climate, retain- 

 ing only such as have some marked excellence in growth, size of flower 

 or beauty of coloring, 



HOW TO REMIT MONEY, AND OTHEE INSTEUCTIONS IN 

 ORDEEING, PLEASE SEE PAGE 2. 



PLANTS BY EXPEESS,— All plants and other goods are sent by ex- 

 press unless specially ordered otherwise. This is by far the most satis- 

 factory way of forwarding, as stronger and better plants can be sent and 

 they will be received in better order. We always add enough " Extras " 

 of valuable plants to cover express charges. 



NO CHAEGE FOE BOXES, BASKETS OE PACKING. 



PLANTS SHIPPED AT ALL SEASONS OE THE YEAE by our im- 

 proved system of packing, which enables us to ship during the coldest 

 weather, and seldom a package is injured. 



SELECTION OF VAEIETIES— If left to us, will be to the interest of 

 the jDurchaser, as it is difficult to judge of the merits of varieties by de- 

 scri^ition, 



PLANTS AND SEEDS SHIPPED IN ONE PACKAGE by express, 

 saving express charges : the orders should be made out on separate 



OIIDEK SHEETS, 



PLANTS AND BULBS BY MAIL.— To those remote from the express 

 office, or who reside in distant places and find express charges excessive, 

 WE MAIL THE PLANTS AND BULBS PREPAID when selected at catalogue 

 rates, excepting Rhododendrons, Tree Pseonias and shrubbery. By the 

 improved modes of packing, small plants that have been grown in cool 

 houses and small pots are mailed to the most distant pointa with perfect 

 safety at all seasons of the year. 



DIRECTIONS FOE THE CAEE OF PLANTS.-Should the weather 

 be favorable for immediate planting (danger of frost being over), and 

 the plants are not injured by long confinement in the box, they may 

 at once be planted out in the flower borders, sprinkling them with 

 water, and shading for a few days from the direct rays of the sun.
