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.
