PIEDMONT PLANT CO., GREENVILLE, S. C 
QUAUTY IN PLANTS 
SUITABLE CLIMATE NECESSARY. Every year mil¬ 
lions of plants are shipped from along the Gulf Coast and 
South Texas, where the climate is mild, that are not well 
hardened, and are not suitable for early setting. In the 
middle south the climate is adapted to growing plants in the 
open, which are hardy enough to set in the open farther 
north. Our farms are located where there is enough cold 
weather to grow plants hardy enough to set in the open field. 
SELECTED PLANTS. Our plants are grown from high 
grade seed, and will be found true to type and variety. Our 
plants are hand selected, and are large enough to set in the 
field. No small, inferior, trashy plants shipped. We ship you 
the kind you order, properly labeled, and full count guaran¬ 
teed. 
EXPRESS SHIPMENTS 
Due to the fact that the Express Companies have reduced their rates 
nearly 30%, while parcel post rates are the same it is cheaper to order 
your plants by express in lots of 2,000 and over to a shipment. We give 
below a scale of express charges per 1,000 plants to different states. We 
will prepay your order by express if you add the right amount according 
to this scale to your remittance at Express Prices. We do not prepay 
orders if you do not send the money with the order.
