WE GUARANTEE OUR STOCK TO BE WELL 
GROWN AND TRUE TO NAME. EVERY PRE- 
CAUTION IS TAKEN IN DIGGING AND PACK- 
ING. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE PLANTS TO 
LIVE AFTER THEY LEAVE OUR NURSERY. 
WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BREAKAGE 
IN TRANSIT; SETTLE YOUR CLAIMS WITH 
CARRIER IMMEDIATELY. 
VISITORS ALWAYS WELCOME. 
LARGE SPECIMEN PLANTS AVAILABLE, BUT 
DUE TO VARIATION IN SIZE AND VARIETY 
THESE PLANTS WILL HAVE TO BE PRICED 
INDIVIDUALLY. 
Transportation. Please state whether you want 
your shipments by Parcel Post, Express, or Freight. 
If no instructions are given, we will use our best 
judgment in selecting best method of shipment. 
Our responsibility ceases when goods are turned 
over to carrier, and risk and cost of transportation 
belong to purchaser. 
Claim. All claims must be made immediately 
on receipt of stock. We shall be glad to rectify any 
mistake made by us, but in no case will our lia- 
bility be more than the purchase price. 
GRAFTED PLANTS 
Due to some influence in the understock beyond 
cur control, occasionally a heretofore solid color, 
pink or red, variety will bloom variegated. We 
guarantee the scion as to variety, but if it blooms 
true or not is another matter. 
Grafted plants often “sucker” from the under- 
stock. These “suckers” should be removed upon 
detection. 
Dieback 
This disease usually follows a rather definite 
course. The effects appear after the damage has 
been done, during the early Summer, at which time 
the leaves of the new growth lose their sheen and 
rapidly die and turn brown. If the stem is severed, 
it is usually found that there is an affected area 
within the woody tissue of the stem, which may or 
may not extend all the way back to, and even into, 
the trunk of the plant. 
The following suggestions will doubtless reduce 
losses: All plants should be watched carefully for 
blighting twigs. These should be removed as soon 
as detected. This is particularly true of the small 
shoots on large branches and the trunk. Cankers on 
the trunk and branches are not easily seen. The 
fungus grows slowly in these tissues, and consider- 
able time may elapse between initial infection and
