WHOLESALE SPECIAL QUOTATIONS 
We cannot quote on small orders. We have arranged both the prepaid 
and F. O. B. prices to take care of the smaller sized orders, however, on 
larger orders that require considerable stock, in particular 4-5-6 sizes of 
varieties such as Picardy, Minuet, Com. Koehl, Early Dawn, Aflame, Bill 
Sowden, Dr. Bennett, Debonair, Wasaga, Mam. White, Lucifer, Mrs. Chase, 
Red Lory, Schwaben Girl, Zane Grey and Zillah. Also various sizes in a 
number of others that are available in fair to large quantity, in particular 
Picardy, which we can quote up to a million or more in planting size. 
QUOTATIONS are F. O. B., Hamburg, N. Y. and subject to prior sale and all 
contingencies beyond our control.

IMPORTMENT—READ: NEW TERMS OF SALE 
CHARGE ACCOUNTS DISCONTINUED: Beginning October 1, 1937, we have 
discontinued to give extended credit and will discontinue to ship on open account. 
This has nothing whatever to do with your credit standing, but is a plan to curtail 
the extra cost of credit selling—the extra booking and office work connected with 
charge accounts, also the margin of profit on wholesale prices has been so low that 
we need our money at the close of the season to use in the production of a new crop. 
We have been planting largely #5, #6 and bulblets in producing “young bulbs.” 
This plan does not give us much “cut flower” money and if we are to maintain low 
average prices, in particular on medium and small sizes, then we must conduct our 
business on a CASH BASIS. We must treat all alike so these quotations are for 
CASH or C. O. D., 20% will hold for later shipment, balance before shipment or 
C.O.D. for balance. Hold orders not paid by April 15, will be sent C.O.D. for balance 
due. 
EXCEPTIONS: The only exceptions to the above will be orders from State and 
Public institutions where the above terms cannot be met fully, however, these 
accounts are paid promptly. The other exceptions will be (only) where written and 
signed agreements exist or are made in the future and whereby both contracting 
parties have some direct benefits from such agreements. In all instances where no 
signed agreements prevail we will sell as per these terms only. 
TERMS OF SALE: Cash or C.O.D. or 20% cash with order and balance before 
shipment. Orders not paid by April 15, will be shipped C.O.D. for balance due. 
These terms apply to all quotations and to all other price lists that we issue. These 
quotations cancel all previous price quotations; sold subject to prior sale and all 
conditions beyond our control. 
PREPAID ITEMS Not listed here at wholesale cannot be quoted wholesale at 
this time but when ordered at P.P. prices to be sent with wholesale F.O.B. shipments 
we will add some extra value to these items when we do not have to prepay them 
separately. Perhaps some of them may be offered F.O.B. in our Jobbers Bulletins 
which we expect to issue at intervals through the selling season. If you wish to 
receive these wholesale and jobbers Bulletins as issued, then please check items at 
bottom of page 2 of the order blank attached in this catalogue. 
THESE PRICES CANCEL ALL PREVIOUS QUOTATIONS 
PARCEL POST SHIPMENTS: Quotations that are not prepaid are regarded 
as Express shipments as that is the most safe method of shipping bulbs, however, 
some customers wish F. O. B. orders sent by parcel post as it is difficult to determine 
actual cost of postage, do not send any postage with order. We will mail all such 
orders C. O. D. for postage due us. If the customer wishes order insured please 
state this fact. We will not be responsible for the loss of any F. O. B. order sent 
by parcel post.
