TERMS, 



TO INSURE dispatch, the proper remittance must be enclosed with the order. Please remember 

 that admirable and safe as our mail facilities are, some vexatious losses to the senders of letters 

 are liable to occur ; that careful as Uncle Sam is, some letters are lost in transit ; some mails are 

 burnt up in great railroad wrecks. Prudence dictates that remittances be made so that in case of 

 loss duplicates can be had. Therefore we say money may be sent at our risk, by P. O. Money Order, Bank 

 Draft, Express Money Order, Money (not stamps) in Registered Letter. We will be responsible for the 

 safe carriage of money sent us in any of the above ways, and if lost will give full value. Wc cannot 

 send Roses or Shrubs to Canada owing to a law recently enacted to that effect, except from March 

 15 to May 15, and from October 7 to December 7, through the following customs ports, where they will 

 be fumigated: St. John, N. B. ; St. Johns, P. Q. ; Niagara Falls and "Windsor, Ontario ; Winnipeg, Manitoba. 

 All other goods are admitted at any time. 



CANADA CUSTOMERS can remit by International Money Order on West Grove, Bank Draft, or 

 currency in Registered Letter. Canada postage stamps have no value here. 



PLEASE DO NOT SEND STAMPS FOR MONEY ; they often come stuck together or stuck 

 to the letter so that they cannot be taken out except by soaking the whole. Silver in small sums, if 

 carefully wrapped, will carry just as safely, and is far more acceptable.

We do not guarantee that Roses we send out will not be 

 killed by drought, insects, accidents or frost after they are 

 planted. • 



But we do guarantee that all plants we send shall 

 reach their destination in good growing condition ; if they 

 do not, inform us by return mail and we will replace at once. 

 When we deliver them to you in good order om* responsibility 

 ends. 



Orders lay mail are sent postpaid to all post-oflBces in 

 the United States or Canada, and we guarantee they shall 

 reach the purchaser in good growing condition. 



Wlien so directed we sliip by Express, or when the 

 order is of a size or character that it cannot be safely sent by 

 mail, the purchaser paying express charges. But we are on 

 the constant lookout to save purchasers all needless expose, 

 and to that end, especially on long distances where goods are 

 ordered by express, we send them by mail, knowing that it is 

 to our customer's decided advantage to do so. 



We guard against errors in filling orders as carefully 

 as we can, but occasionally, in spite of best care, some mis- 

 takes will creep in ; when they do, notify us at once, and we 

 will correct by return mail. We cordially invite customers 

 for our goods, and do not intend they shall regret coming to 

 us if wc can possibly by fair dealing prevent it. But do not 

 blame us for not promptly filling your order, if you have (as 

 hundreds do every year) given no name or address ; if you 

 live in a city please be careful to give street and number. If 

 your letter is lost on the way and does not reach us, it will of 

 course cause delay and often vexation. 



Our Roses are all on thef.r o-wn Roots. — Only a few 

 years ago a great authority on Roses said that Hybrid Per- 

 petuals and Mosses could not be grown that way ; he was 

 mistaken ; we grow all classes of Roses on their own Roots, 

 and such only are sent out. 



Our Roses are all grovrn in pots, in good, fresh soil 

 without stimulants ; arc strong, healthy plants, kept free from 



blooming here by cutting the buds off as they appear, and 

 with any fair treatment on your part will be sure to grow ; 

 and the Ever-blooming class will bud and bloom as soon as 

 they start to grow vigorously. 



Do not expect all varieties of Roses to be of the same size. 

 Some under the same conditions make much larger and 

 stronger plants than others, but many of the weakest growers 

 produce the most beautiful flowers. 



Please Observe Carefully.— In ordering please use the 

 sheet which we provide for the purpose whenever possible. 

 Simply fill up the blanks, giving the number and name of 

 the varieties wanted, with the price ; we will understand. 

 Do not interline or make other notations thereon having 

 reference to the order. If you wish to communicate with us 

 at the same time use a separate sheet of paper. Write neatly, 

 giving your name and address plainly. When ordering 

 always state wlien you wislx the tilings shipped, 

 else they will be sent you at once. Attention to these details 

 will greatly facilitate our work and prevent confusion, errors 

 and misunderstandings. 



Our aim is to do even better than we promise, so 

 when the order will at all afford it, we add to it some plant 

 or plants gratis ; they are marked P. on the back of label, 

 and are often choice new kinds ; several of the Roses now so 

 eagerly sought after were first introduced to our customers in 

 this way— Presented with their order. 



Foreign orders can be sent by mail to the countries with 

 which we have a parcel post exchange. They can also be 

 sent by express, but the party ordering must give the name 

 and address of some one in New York who will receive the 

 goods, prepay ocean charges and forward to them. 



When large lots of Roses, Shrubbery, Vines, etc., are Avanted 

 for Cemetery or Hedge planting, send us a list of stock wanted 

 to price ; growing it in large quantities as we do, we can 

 make for such very advantageous prices.
