1949 RYERSON LIST NUMBER FOUR - Seedlings in Community Pots Page 12 
A “community pot" is any pot containing three or more seedlings. When you or- 
der community pots which sound like an unusual bargain, I suggest you inquire 
first, “How many seedlings are in it and how big are they?" If there are only 
five to ten tiny seedlings in the pot, they may not be as great a bargain as 
you imagined. 
The following community pots contain not less than fifteen seedlings each, 
Many contain thirty or more. The fifteen-or-more pots have big, sturdy seed- 
lings ready for individual pots. In cases where the number of seedlings is 
larger, the seedlings themselves are smaller - well-established and growing 
vigorously, but not requiring the shift to individual pots for thirty to sixty 
dayse 
When ordering from this list, please indicate your choice. Would you rather 
have fifteen of the larger seedlings, or thirty or more of the smaller ones? 
Wherever possible, I will give you your choice in this matter. First orders re- 
ceived will have first choice. All offerings subject to prior sale, but no 
substitutions without customer's consent. 
If you'd like for me to enclose a sample 2=-inch pot and simple instructions on 
an easy but effective way of shifting to individual pots, please ask for it.
