Plants will be so packed that they may stand a journey of a week or ten days without 
1 injury. Should the packages arrive at their destination during a severe frost it will be 
i 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 all 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. 1 .

N.B. — Foreign and Colonial Orders must in all cases be accompanied by a remittance ;

! in advance.
