TO OUR MANY CUSTOMERS AND FRIENDS: 
It is with great pleasure and pride that we offer you 
our new 1949 Spring and Fall Catalogue. We are starting 
our Twelfth Year in business, and we take pleasure in 
thanking each and every one of you for the splendid 
support given Garden City Perennial Gardens. 
We especially thank all of you who have recom- 
mended and will recommend our plants to your friends 
and neighbors. We are very grateful, and will continue 
to do our best to please them as we have pleased you. 
Should you at any time receive anything from us which 
is not satisfactory or true to name, please let us hear 
from you. We have always tried to make right any just 
claim. 
This year, we have the pleasure of introducing the 
new Subulata Phlox from the prominent Eastern Horti- 
culturist, Mr. J. Herbert Alexander, of Middleboro, Mas- 
sachusetts; who has made great strides in the improve- 
ment of the Subulata Phlox to the world. These Phlox are 
ideal for the special spot in the sunny rock garden. 
We are also introducing to the Iris World, two of 
our new Ironclad variety of Iris. 
All perennials are listed in groups of three or more 
of one kind; as this tends to give a more effective garden 
display. Flowers depend a great deal on the composition 
of soils. A good gardener is not surprised if plants vary 
somewhat in shades of color from descriptions in a 
catalogue. 
Visitors are always welcome. Our Gardens are lo- 
cated at Fremont, Nebraska, on East Military Avenue; 
one-half mile East of City limits; the first house East of. 
Garden ‘City School on South side of the highway. Come 
often and enjoy our flowers. It is always a pleasure to 
show them.

$1.50 kindly add 25c to cover postage and packing 
charges. All orders $1.50 and over, we prepay all charges. 
We will ship by parcel post unless otherwise desired. All 
Express shipments go Collect. However, if Express ship- 
ment is received in bad condition file claim with your 
Express Agent. No C.O.D. Orders Considered. 
Guarantee—We do guarantee safe arrival of plants 
in good condition, but due to the fact that we have no 
control over the plants after they leave our hands, we 
cannot therefore guarantee them to grow. No claims 
for errors allowed unless made within ten days after 
receipt of goods. We express or imply no warranty as 
to productiveness of nursery stock we sell. If any nurs- 
ery stock, etc., proves untrue to description under which 
it is sold, we hold ourselves in readiness on proper proof, 
to replace all such nursery stock, etc.; but we shall in no 
case be liable for any sum greater than the amount 
originally received for said nursery stock. 
We accept all orders subject to crop conditions and 
on condition that same shall be void should injury befall 
our stock from hail, fire, frost, error in count, or other 
causes beyond our control. We appreciate all orders; we
