I exercise the greatest care to have everything true to name and will replace free, or refund 
the money, on any stock untrue to name. If for any reason you are dissatisfied with the stock, when

THRIP 
The bulbs are guaranteed free from thrip. We treat our bulbs in storage and will ship

lye or corrosive sublimate. Directions will be packed with your order if you are not familiar with 
these treatments.
