Early in Spring 
Or late in autumn, we often send large orders of plants long distances by 
freight, thereby saving our customers heavy express bills. We pack these 
orders very strongly to stand the rough treatment they usually get. In 
packing orders to go long distances by express, we use light boxes, crates 
and market baskets, making the package as light as possible to save charges.

Plants by Mail 
Like all other orders, are packed in damp moss, wrapped in oiled paper and 
then in strong manilla. We protect the crowns with a piece of cardboard 
and fix up the package so it will travel around the world if necessary. 
Postage on plants is 8c per pound to any place in the United States and its 
colonies. The postage to Canada is 16c per pound. To most other coun¬ 
tries (by way of parcels post), the postage is 12c per pound. We advise

on our ability to pack plants to go safely and arrive in good condition when 
sent long distances, under normal conditions, whether sent by mail, express 
or freight.
