How to Order Fresh-Cut Flowers 



By Mail, Long-Distance Telephone and Telegraph, or Your Own Florist 



MAKE USE OF OUR CUT FLOWER DEPARTMENT ESTABLISHED FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF OUR CUSTOMERS 



Because of our location at New York City, we can make quick deliveries of fresh-cut flowers 

 to all out-going steamers from this port, or to any address in New York City. 



HOW TO ORDER. You remit to us the amount you wish to spend, with your order and we 

 will deliver as instructed. Customers having 

 charge accounts with us. may telegraph their 

 orders and have them charged. 



Customers are often in a dilemma as to just the 

 kind of flowers they should send, and no doubt 

 this uncertainty often discourages them from 

 ordering. It is usually better to leave the selection 

 of flowers to us. Tell us in your letter or telegram 

 for what purpose the flowers are to be used, for 

 instance, whether for a bouquet, a corsage or a 

 floral design, or loose flowers suitable for vases. 

 We will then be able to supply a much better 

 selection than could be specified from a distance. 



Be careful to send the full name and address of 

 the person to whom the flowers are to be sent : also 

 the form of greeting or message to be enclosed 

 with them. 



THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER METHOD 

 OF ORDERING 



We are members of the Florists' Telegraph 

 Delivery Association, and through it. we can 

 deliver fresh-cut flowers to any city, town or 

 village in the U. S. A. All that is necessary for you 

 to do, is to go to any Florist in your town who is 

 a member of this Association, and place your 

 order with him. Tell him that you wish Peter 

 Henderson & Co. to fill the order. He will then 

 telegraph the order to us. and we will deliver the 

 flowers to the given address, thereby saving 

 much time. 



It has been well said that the Florists' Tele- 

 graph Delivery Association is "the world's 

 superlative example of co-ordination in the de- 

 livery of merchandise" because anyone can now 

 step into a members shop, and order a delivery 

 of flowers to practically any address in the world, 

 with the certain knowledge that within a veVy 

 short space of time the gift will be on its way. A Shoulder Conagl
