2 ROY HENNESSEY’S ROSES 
BUSINESS TERMS 
Please do not send cash or stamps as cash is apt to get lost in the 
mails. I cannot handle stamps. Often a bank draft is cheaper than a 
Post Office money order. Your personal check is acceptable. 
PAYMENT—ROSES PREPAID 
I will not accept any order unless accompanied with at least a deposit 
of 50%. For those who feel they must have billing I suggest that they 
try some of my competitors who will be glad to oblige. 5% extra for cities 
or states where billing is necessitated. No order accepted for less than 
payment of $3.00 at time of ordering. 
NO PHONE ORDERS ACCEPTED 
All orders of bush and climbing roses and tulips will be prepaid. 
Rhododendrons and tree roses as well as weeping trees will be sent ex- 
press charges collect—although there will be no packing or crating 
charges. These items are not mailable. Government Orders are not 
solicited because of Red Tape involved—NOR from the State of Florida 
for the same reason. 
DISCOUNTS 
POSITIVELY NO DEALER DISCOUNTS 
Discounts will not be allowed on orders where there are more than 15 
varieties unless they average three plants of a variety. 
20% of on $50.00 and over. No discount will be allowed on patent 
roses other than dozen rate allowed by patent owners. No discount will 
be allowed on combination orders of such as rhododendrons, tulips, my 
book, tree roses or special offers such as the Nigger Boy or other Poly. 
groups or the second grade dozens. 
You may take discounts on discountable items where the total order 
amounts to the 20% minimum; thus if your order has even one dis- 
countable item in the $50.00 order you deduct it. You must have $50.00 
worth of bush or climbing roses before taking discount. ‘Tree Roses, 
Rhododendrons, etc., cannot be used in figuring discounts because they 
have to be handled entirely separate and it is the handling cost that earns 
discounts. 
Substitutions—When I run short of rose varieties late in the season, 
I will substitute where I have something very similar. 
Shipping Season—I will not ship until roses are in proper condition re- 
gardless of what some other grower does. Also, all orders will be shipped 
in sequence of order received except that I ship northern and Canadian 
border states first along with the high areas, then the middle states. 
Shipping will not start in western Oregon and Washington until around 
December ist as earlier planting may start growth and then there would 
be winter damage. I will attempt to start shipping about November 5 this 
year to the coldest sections first.
