THE MUNSON NURSERIES :: D E N I S O N , T E X A S 
An Ideal That Protects You 
The late T. V. Munson, who 
founded the Munson Nurseries 
more than fifty-six years ago, was 
a great scientist and one of the 
world’s greatest authorities on 
grape culture and growth. 
But he was more than that. He 
was a great business man. He un¬ 
derstood that business is not a one¬ 
sided thing. Both the seller and 
the buyer had to profit in every 
transaction. The product had to 
be not only of the highest quality, 
but also at the right price. 
That ideal has dominated every 
transaction we have made from 
that day to the present time. In 
order to make clear to our cus¬ 
tomers and to keep it always be¬ 
fore our minds, we have put that ideal into a sort of business philosophy 
such as this: 
(1) Every plant shipped from the Munson Nurseries must be grown 
under the most favorable conditions. 
(2) Each plant must be true in name and color. 
(3) Each plant must grade number one quality and be priced as such. 
(4) Each plant must, to the best of our ability and knowledge to make 
it so, be free from disease. 
If an ever growing list of customers and friends is any indication, 
then the Munson Nurseries have never deviated in any manner from any one 
of those commands. 
Today as in the past we say that any plant you buy from us must 
measure up to those promises. If it does not, we will make it good. 
Such a pledge is worth money to you, much more money than the cost 
of any single item. For if the plants you buy are not of the best grade and 
stock, the success you have in growing them is limited or eliminated al¬ 
together.

sented to the late T. V. Munson, founder of 
the Munson Nurseries, by the Republic of 
France in recognition of his services in saving 
the Grape Industry of France.
