SUNSET SEED AND PLANT COMPANY. 
Tree and Shrub Seeds 
Amateur cultivators will please remember that seeds of this class usually take time to germinate — in some 
cases only a few days, in others several weeks — and that quite frequently they lie dormant the whole season 
before commencing to grow. 
We do not sell these seeds in quantities of less than an ounce of any one variety, except those that are quoted at 
over twenty-five cents per ounce; of these twenty-five unt packets will be supplied.
