Service to our customers will be at a very high level in the season we are entering. The quality 
of plants in roses, camellias, azaleas, etc., is the best. We offer very few small plants this season— 
practically everything we list is grown in our fields. All are grown on fertile land built up with cover 
crops and crop rotation. 
It has long been our policy to keep right up with the ‘‘New,”’ selecting the best for the Lower South, 
but, unlike many growers, we do not discard old varieties of proven merit. Old Fashioned Tea Roses 
are ideally suited to the hot, moist climate of the Lower South, so we have become the one source in 
the South offering a large collection of them. But, at Thomasville we grow hybrid teas equally as 
well, including many of the best of the newer, patented roses. Such varieties as Peace and Charlotte 
Armstrong have been greatly admired in our fields the past summer. 
While we seek to give the maximum of good value, 
we do not grow plants cheaply for the purpose 
of selling them the cheapest. Rather, we are growing 
the finest quality and catering to the patronage of 
those who want the best. We think our plants are 
priced very low for good quality. We invite those who 
can do so to come to the nursery, see for yourselves and 
compare values. However, for those who order by mail, 
we promise careful selections and prompt shipment. 
Always we have tried to be one of America’s best 
nurseries. But, we are not one of the largest. We are 
large enough to grow a wide assortment of stock, but 
small enough that every transaction passes under the 
eyes of one of the Hjorts. We are grateful for the 
patronage of the past, and pledge ourselves to faithful 
service in the new season.
