I remove all plants at flowering time that appear to be untrue to 
name, but being human an occasional mistake will occur, in which event 
I will only be responsible to the extent of replacing the plant or refund¬ 
ing the purchase price. 
Unless specifically requested not to do so, I will ship a similar va¬ 
riety to one ordered when the variety ordered is sold out. A list of 
“Second choice” varieties is helpful in such cases. When requested not 
to do this, the purchase price of any variety not furnished as ordered 
will be refunded.

General Information 
My plants are grown in the open garden here at No. 7 James Avenue, 
Montgomery, Ala., and I personally select, label and pack each order. 
Shipments can be made earlier than the middle of April, but except 
for the southern portion of the United States earlier shipments are not 
desirable. However, if desired, shipments can be made earlier. 
Each order of plants will be dipped ‘ head and ears” in a standard 
insecticide spray immediately prior to packing, which eliminates even 
the possibility of any insect pest surviving. 
Mimeographed cultural directions will be included in each package 
of plants shipped, and where order includes any Cascade types a sheet 
containing* instructions on their special treatment will also be included. 
Bud selection and blooming dates are for this locality and must be 
taken as approximations only. Further north they will be advanced, and 
delayed as you go South. A variety will be matured and gone here by 
the time it is in bloom in New Orleans. 
Unusually hot weather in September and October will often lighten 
the colors of most mums—particularly the pinks, and this should be 
borne in mind when ordering the early varieties. As a general rule such 
varieties maturing before the latter part of October are not satisfactory 
for the southern portion of the United States—the sun being just too 
hot during September and early October. 
The fact that some varities appear in my catalogue one year and 
are not listtd the next does not mean that I consider them worthless— 
it probably means that I just haven’t enough plants surplus to list. So 
if you want a certain variety that has been listed in a previous catalogue, 
you may include it in your order and I will do my best to supply it. Even 
though I may not have enough to list of certain varieties, I usually do 
have a few plants and so could probably help you out. You may try it 
anyway, but give a second choice in case I can’t.
