TERMS OF SALES 
Tait’s Seeds are Thorobred and Tested, and we know they will grow before they are sent out. Even then, they may 
occasionally not come up, due to causes over which we have no control, such as too deep covering or not deep enough; 
too little or too much moisture; unfavorable weather or heavy rains that might cause a crust to form through which 
the young sprouts cannot penetrate. Therefore, Geo. Tait & Sons, Inc., give no warranty, express or implied as to 
the results of any seeds, bulbs or plants it sells, and will not be in any way responsible for the crop. Its liability in 
all instances is limited to the purchase price of the seeds, bulbs or plants. ae
