requested from those sending their orders for the first time. 
The full price allowed for all packages if returned carriage free and in good condition 
within a month. 
Plants will be so packed that they may stand a journey of a week or ten days without 
injury. Should the packages arrive at their destination during a severe frost it will be 
advisable not to unpack them, but to keep them cool and moist, out of reach of frost, until a 
change of weather takes place. 
Failures sometimes take place in the removing and transplanting of aU kinds of trees. 
This may occur through a variety of circumstances, such as severe frost and drought, cold 
north-easterly winds in spring, want of the usual care in planting, and other causes for which 
it is impossible for the nurseryman to be accountable. The greatest care is taken to supply 
healthy and strong plants of everything required ; and if on receipt any are broken in transit, 
or not satisfactory, we shall be pleased to make every compensation : but complaints received 
months afterwards cannot be taken into consideration. 
FOREIGN ORDERS. 
We take special care in the selection of Roses and other Plants, Trees and Seeds for 
exportation, and our system of packing has proved most successful ; only well-ripened plants 
and most suitable varieties are chosen, and every care is taken to secure their safe arrival. 
FOREIGN PARCEIB POST. — Parcels of Roses may now be sent by post to British 
Colonies and to most Foreign Countries. 
N.B. — Foreign and Colonial Orders must in all cases be accompanied by a remittance ; 
this should include sufficient to cover cost of packing and carriage when latter has to be paid 
in advance.
