PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ORDERING 
Write your NAME AND ADDRESS plainly. 
ORDER EARLY and please suggest one or two accept- 
able substitutes as the stock of some varieties is not 
abundant this year. 
The STOCK we ship is all first quality and rhizomes are 
of blooming size. Because of our long rainless sum- 
mers and our well-drained hillside gardens, the plants 
are well matured and fully dormant before shipping 
time. 
SHIPPING TIME for iris is June 1 to October 1, to suit 
customers’ convenience and proper planting time. 
SALES TAX. Add 21/.% to cover tax on all goods deliv- 
ered in California and any other tax that may be in 
effect at the time. No tax on vegetable seed. 
POSTAGE. Seed orders of any amount sent postpaid. 
On bulb orders or combination seed and bulb orders 
of less than $1.00, add 15c for packing and postage. 
All retail orders amounting to $1.00 or over will be 
delivered free to all points reached by regular Parcel 
Post. 
TERMS. Remittance should accompany order unless 
shipment is to be sent C.O.D., or satisfactory credit 
references are given. Remit by Postal or Express 
Money Orders or by drafts on American banks when 
ordering from Canada or foreign countries. 25% 
deposit will hold orders until shipping time, when 
they will be sent C.O.D. for balance unless otherwise 
arranged. 
NON-WARRANTY. We give no warranty, express or 
implied, as to description, quality, productiveness, or 
any other matter of seeds, bulbs, rhizomes or plants 
sent out by us and will not be responsible in any 
way for the crop. If the purchaser does not accept 
the goods on these terms no sale thereof is made and 
purchaser must return them at once, and money will 
be refunded. 
REFERENCES. For our business standing, please refer

SAVINGS ASSOCIATION; AMERICAN TRUST CO.,

Our list of iris is comparatively small. We do, however, list practically all the varieties of real importance, and 
satisfactory growing qualities. 
It has always been our policy to offer only the best varieties. After the customer's initial investment the cost of 
growing is no greater than that of the commonest sorts. 
Iris are quite different from other flowers and shrubs. When you buy a rose or a flowering bush you are re- 
warded only by larger growth from season to season, and have no increase. If you buy an iris this year, next sea- 
son you will have three or four times as many, and in a few years you will have a grand display. Also remember 
that few flowers will stand hardships as well as iris.
