47 Message to Our Many “Friends... 
Sixty-six years have passed since Mr. Green founded this nursery. His 
idea to sell direct to the public solely through the medium of a catalog 
has been most successful. 
This success could have been attained only as a result of the confidence 
you nave placed in us. We, in turn, have endeavored to warrant that 
confidence by growing and selling nursery stock that was true-to-name, 
and which we have, by experience, found to be most hardy. 
Mr. E. H. Burson, former Superintendent and President, and associated 
with us for over 50 years, passed away this summer. We mourn his passing 
as do the thousands of his friends throughout the country. Our close 
association with him for many years has more deeply instilled in us the 
neighbor. 
you, perhaps hundreds of miles away, just as if you were our next door 
We want you to feel that you can depend on us to treat you fairly and 
aim of our organization since its very beginning, and that is to serve 
squarely when you entrust your order to us. Our sixty-six years of service 
are proof of that endeavor. 
If you have friends or neighbors who may be interested in fruit trees, 
shrubs, evergreens, perennials, etc., we would consider it a favor if you 
would speak to them of us. 
To all our many patrons throughout the country and to those of you 
whom we are contacting for the first time, may we wish you health, 
happiness, and success this year of 1941. 
Sincerely yours, 
GREEN’S NURSERY, F. J. Sickles, President

To order from this catalog, simply make your selection, 
write it on the order blank found in this catalog and 
TERMS 
Please send payment with order. A personal check, 
postal money order, express money order or bank 
draft is the best form of remittance. This payment- 
with-order saves an enormous bookkeeping expense, 
and we are thus able to offer you high grade trees at 
very low prices. 
If you wish your order shipped C.O.D., kindly re- 
mit one-quarter of the total amount when order is 
sent to us, and balance can be paid to expressman, 
or mailman when delivery is made. 
If your express or freight order amounts to less than 
$2.50, kindly include 25c extra to cover packing and 
handling costs. 
In order to make our prices as low as possible, we 
have based our packing costs on orders amounting 
to $10.00 or more. It costs practically as much to 
pack a small order as it does a large one. THIS 
DOES NOT APPLY TO PARCEL POST ORDERS.

The bulk of our business is crowded into a com- 
paratively short period of time during the spring 
season, which means that our facilities are taxed to 
the utmost. 
If we can induce our customers to send their orders 
early, it will give us more time for each individual 
order, and naturally the early orders will have 
preference over the late ones, as certain items are 
sold out many times before the end of the season. 
Your order, sent in early, will receive attention first, 
and stock will be reserved for you. 
As an inducement for early orders, we are offering 
the following premiums: 
WHEN TO ORDER 
It is best to order early, as this enables us to reserve 
for you the varieties you want and avoids the possi- 
bility of our being sold out. We ship when weather 
conditions are favorable in the spring. If you wish 
shipment made on a certain day, please make a note 
on your order. 
WHEN TO PLANT 
Planting can be done any time the trees and shrubs 
are dormant, and the ground is not frozen. 
HOW TO PLANT 
We use every effort to help make your planting a 
success, and have had a special booklet of planting 
instructions printed and one is included with every 
order.
