[2] RICHGLAD GARDEN 
TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
This year for the first time we are offering bulbs in three sizes in all varieties 
where we have stock available. For exhibition purposes, get large bulbs 14-inch 
or more in diameter. Good blooms are produced from medium (34-inch to 14-inch) 
bulbs of almost all varieties. Small (14-inch to 34-inch) of many varieties give good 
bloom but noticeably smaller in size and cannot always be depended upon to bloom. 
Bulblets cannot be depended upon, either to bloom or for germination, and many 
fail to grow under the best conditions. 
We pay delivery charges on all bulbs listed in this catalog except where noted. 
Full remittance should accompany all orders but we will reserve stock for you on 
a deposit of 25% of order, balance before shipment or C.O.D. However, local orders 
(Richmond city only) will be accepted for C.O.D. delivery without deposit. Dial 
6-2504. Currency sent by unregistered mail is entirely at sendet’s risk. 
Please do not send us orders under $1.00. We do usually fill such orders 
for regular customers as an accommodation, but such orders are handled 
at a loss. On orders of less than $1.00, please enclose 10c for postage. 
Our prices are as low as our cost of production and handling will permit. Con- 
sequently we do not offer any complicated series of discounts. In buying bulbs, often 
the price is a minor item. Quality and integrity of the grower, etc., generally count 
for more in terms of satisfaction at blooming time. We ship only vigorous young 
bulbs two-year-old or less, equal in quality to any bulbs you can buy. Contrary to 
general belief, the largest bulbs do not produce the finest bloom, if such bulbs are 
over two years old or size has been forced by over fertilization. If you are not satisfied, 
return the bulbs at our expense and your money will be refunded without question. — 
All stock is offered and orders accepted subject to prior sale. We do not substitute 
without your permission, but would suggest that you name one or two second choices 
or authorize us to send double the quantity of medium size bulbs if sold out of 
large bulbs of varieties ordered. 
Our variety descriptions are a frank statement of their performance in our gar- 
den but we give no warranty, expressed or implied, of their performance under 
conditions over which we have no control. If, however, you are not satisfied with 
their performance, we will appreciate your telling us. 
Weather conditions largely govern shipping dates. Shipments usually start about 
March 15th except to Southern points which can usually be made at any time. 
We will appreciate your advising when shipment is desired.

Bulbs come out of dirt and have other troubles to contend with. Do not expect 
all of them to look spotlessly clean. Frequently they develop bruise marks from 
non-moving contact with storage trays or show occasional bruises from removal of 
old bulbs and roots in cleaning. Again some varieties become discolored in drying 
in storage or are stained from husks if the season is wet at digging time as was the 
case last season. Such injuries affect only the appearance of the bulb and not its 
ability to perform. 
Our bulbs are all hand-cleaned and inspected and are generally free from deface- 
ment from any cause.
