Te Our Customers: 
THE TILLINGHAST SEED COMPANY was established in La Conner in the seed and bulb business in 1885 
where it became one of the most reputable distributors and erowers in the Northwest. We are justly proud of the 
part Tillinghast has contributed to the Northwest Horticulture and the traditions in which it continues to serve. 
This is our 64th year and again we offer you service and quality merchandise that only experience and ability 
can supply. 
Plants and trees are freshly dug for your individual order, carefully packed in Sphagnum Moss and waterproof 
paper and guaranteed to reach you in good condition. Our blubs are stored in ideal conditions, hand picked and 
selected true to name for your order. Our seeds are the best obtainable, noted for their high germination, vitality 
and freedom from weed seeds. 
In order to serve you better, order early and we will make shipment at the proper planting time. 
GUARANTEE. We guarantee all items we sell to be true to name and in good condition when shipped. We also 
guarantee safe arrival, but owing to conditions beyond our control, such as weather, soil and method of planting, 
we cannot guarantee them to grow. All claims for stock damaged or in poor condition when received, must reach us 
within 10 days after arrival. In no eases will we be liable for more than the purchase price of the article.
