fOUR guarantee against garden failure and 
disappointment is the Wayside windmill 
mark. It is used on all Wayside plants and 
bulbs as your protection. Used, because 
the inherent “Root Strength” value of our 
plants and bulbs is not always apparent to 
the layman’s eye, before planting. 
So it is that we use the Wayside wind¬ 
mill mark on our plants and bulbs as your 
guarantee against 
garden failures and 
disappointments. 
We guarantee 
that every bulb or 
plant we ship, is 
first class in every 
respect and abso¬ 
lutely true to name. 
We further guaran¬ 
tee they will bloom for you the first season 
if you will but give them reasonable 
care. 
Of course, you would not expect us to 
replace plants lost in your garden through 
carelessness or lack of knowledge. Nor 
would you expect us to assume any re¬ 
sponsibility for losses caused by uncon¬ 
trollable weather conditions. 
We do, however, 
guarantee safe ar¬ 
rival, in good con¬ 
dition, at all points 
within the United 
States. Any not so 
arriving, we will at 
once cheerfully re¬ 
place without cost 
to you. 
CULTURAL INFORMATION 
Our catalogues are more than just price lists. They 
contain valuable cultural information as well as 
being a guide to all worthwhile plants and bulbs and 
seeds. They are costly to print so mailing them to 
disinterested people results in unwarranted expense. 
In future, therefore, no catalogues will be mailed 
to customers of record who have not purchased 
anything from us for two years, unless 50c is en¬ 
closed with your request to continue mailing our 
3 books for another year. Or, the sending of an order 
for not less than $3, will accomplish the same results. 
Of Particular Importance to Buyers 
AS you read through the pages of this book we 
JT\ ask you to bear in mind that we are submit¬ 
ting for your approval something in excess of 
merely flowering bulbs, flowering plants or rose 
bushes as such. 
The vital something is the intangible quality of 
“Root Strength.” That something which is your 
definite assurance that your garden, planted with 
Wayside plants and bulbs, will the first season, 
be a spot of satisfaction and exceptional beauty. 
Note we say the first season. 
There has been no effort on our part to compete 
with the ordinary low-priced plants and bulbs. 
Common sense tells you that can’t be done when 
every plant we offer is of highest quality. 
“Root Strength” quality is not readily notice¬ 
able to your eye until the flower season arrives. 
Then the outstanding difference becomes decid¬ 
edly apparent. 
All inferior or indifferent varieties have been 
discarded, and replaced by the finest varieties at 
tempting prices. These tempting prices are pos¬ 
sible because we offer no novelties until we are 
able to produce them in goodly numbers giving 
you the benefit of quantity production. 
SUCCESS COSTS SO MUCH LESS THAN FAILURE 
It is the “Root Strength” in all Wayside Plants success. So why take chances when Wayside plants 
that so largely determines and insures your garden are your guarantee of satisfactory results?
