exempt from this ruling, and may be shipped into 
Canada without a permit. Gladiolus bulbs come under 
the classification of Nursery Stock. 
This ruling must be complied with in order to make 
delivery and we ask you, in the event of an order, to 
secure this permit, advising us of the number of same, 
that we may mark it on the outside wrapper. 
Prices: The prices quoted herein are our very lowest 
current prices. They cancel all previous quotations made 
either by letter or advertisements.

first-class stock but give no warranty, expressed or 
implied, and will not be in any way responsible for

To satisfy our customers in every way has been 
our first aim. Bulbs found not true to name should 
be retained by the customer and we shall replace 
number that are untrue, free of charge. No planting 
stock or bulblets will be included in this case. 
If you have any complaints to make about any 
stock received from us, please do not hesitate to do

our transaction complete until you are absolutely 
satisfied.

please remit by postal money orders. Do not remit by 
personal checks. Positively no C. O. D. orders accepted.

Write your address plainly. We had orders last 
year which we were unable to get into the hands of 
the purchaser. If your handwriting is poor, please 
print your address. 
Order Early: An order sheet and addressed reply 
envelope are inclosed for your convenience. Place 
your orders early so that you will not be disap¬ 
pointed in your selection. All orders are filled 
promptly the day they come in or the day after. If 
you do not receive your order in two weeks, please 
notify us promptly as there have been occasions 
where people sent orders which we did not receive. 
In such a case please repeat the order so an immediate 
replacement of goods can be made. 
Order your Petunia and Dahlia seeds or bulbs early 
as they might easily be damaged if carried around by 
the postman in zero weather and exposed to frost for 
hours. 
Substitution: In the latter part of the season we may 
be out of some varieties, so please give your second 
choice. In case no substitution is desired please so 
advise in your order. 
Packing: Through years of experience we have 
worked out the most satisfactory method of packing 
seeds and bulbs and there is very little possibility of 
damaging them in transit, either by frost or moisture. 
To visitors: The nursery is open week days from 
7 :00 a. m. to 5 :00 p. m., but is closed on Sundays and 
holidays. 
Oxnard is situated midway between Los Angeles 
and Santa Barbara, in Ventura county, on the Coast 
Route of the Southern Pacific Railroad and on the 
Roosevelt Coast Highway. It is a city of about 7000 
people and has a temperate climate, averaging 70 
degrees the year ’round. Oxnard, “The Petunia 
City,” is one of the nicest, cleanest little towns in 
California. 
NOTICE: Please keep this catalog and read it over carefully. It contains answers to most of 
the questions usually asked by customers. In the future when such questions are asked we shall 
refer customers to our catalog. These inquiries usually come in during the busy season and it is 
almost impossible to answer them all. 
We issue only one catalog in which we list both wholesale and retail prices. 
OUR NURSERY IS POSITIVELY CLOSED ON SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS.
