CONDITIONS OF SALE. No seeds are sold by us that we do not know are of good vitality and will grow 
under normal conditions. They are all tested and the percent that germinates is marked on the package or 
label so you can tell just how many seeds out of one hundred will germinate. 
We assume responsibility of the seeds, plants and bulbs we cell reaching the purchaser in good condition. 
However, in common with all responsible seedsmen, all our seeds, plants and bulbs are sold on the distinct 
understanding and with the agreement by the purchaser that we will not be responsible for any loss or damage 
that may accrue by reason of the failure of the seeds, plants or bulbs to grow or to be of the variety or quality 
offered. We will not accept or fill orders under any other conditions.
