FALL SHIPPING BEGINS IN AUGUST, when I send out large Rhododendrons, 
Kalmias, and other evergreens, and bulbs and herbaceous plants, general stock going out 
in October and November. In spring shipments are made from about March 1 to May 15 .

but assume no risk. 
SHIPMENTS OF “COLLECTED” RHODODENDRON MAXIMUM and KAL¬ 
MIAS are from my special fields in Pennsylvania and the South, depending on destination 
and quality of stock desired. The best clumps come from the South, from high altitudes. 
“Collected” Rhododendron catawbiense comes only from the South. 
PRICES are made to fit the quality of stock sent out. Few realize that the real value of 
nursery stock is largely underground. Frequent transplanting, and handling specimens with 
adequate, burlaped balls means success and quick results, ft costs more, but it is the fixed 
policy of the Boxford Nursery; and “cheap" stock will not be handled or sent out. The best 
is always the cheapest. 
AN EXTRA PRICE is always charged for special selection on the grounds. 
Prices quoted in this catalog are net. I offer no premiums, discounts, or gratuities to

public works are requested to apply for special rates.
