Why Our Plant Business Increases 
A very large per cent of our increase in trade 
comes from customers that have bought plants 
from us for years and have learned where they 
can get plants that will bring results. These 
customers tell their friends and others to come 
to the Bridgman Nursery Company for good plants 
and square dealing, the best of treatment. They 
know where to go for guaranteed plants, true to 
name, freshly dug, sure to grow, and with won- 
derful bearing qualities.

expectations.
