“THAT POPULAR GIFT CERTIFICATE” 
Through a recent plan originated through the American Association of 
Nurserymen, it is now possible to purchase a gift certificate for a shade tree, 
an evergreen, a rose bush; in fact, anything pertaining to plants usually found 
in a nursery, with delivery to be made by a member nurseryman in proper 
season, in practically any city in the United States. This certificate may be 
purchased from any American Association of Nurserymen member, and sent 
to a friend or relative, who can present the gift certificate to any member of 
the above Association in his city or locality, who will in turn fill the order as 
originally purchased. This plan is similar to the Florists’ Telegraph Service in 
that association’s method of wiring flowers throughout the world; only the 
mail is used rather than wire, as the nurseryman filling the order must have 
the certificate. 
Why not make a present of this gift certificate through us, to that friend 
or loved one you wish to remember for that particular holiday or anniversary 
—or just simply a present, as a living memorial and constant reminder of the 
friendship and love of the donor. All purchases are bonded through insurance 
carried by the American Association of Nurserymen, to insure recipient in 
obtaining the gift, and are redeemable at over 1,200 nurseries from coast to 
coast. 
PLANTING AND LABOR CHARGES 
As everyone knows, merchandise costs more today than ever before. A 
good part of this is on account of labor costs, and our business is no exception. 
Due to our seasonal business, good labor is hard to get, and at a premium; 
consequently a revision of planting charges when done on a percentage basis, 
or labor furnished for other than regular planting must be on a different basis 
today than it was previous to 1947. 
As a general basis, all plants or plantings installed by us will be charged 
for as follows: all bare root trees, shrubs and perennials—40% added to the 
sale price of the material; evergreens or other balled and burlapped items at 
25% additional; roses at 30c each, where no extra soil or ground preparation is 
necessary; hedges at 50% additional, or at 15¢c per foot, whichever is the 
greater. Where our services are required for just straight labor, the charge is 
a minimum of $2.00 per man hour. 

Visit Our Nursery 
Many things of interest will be found, in a trip through our Nursery. 
Especially is this true, in the summer time, when you will see many thousands 
of Dahlias, Gladioli, and Hardy Perennials blooming on every side; a riot of 
color, as well as interesting to all flower lovers. Evergreens, Shrubs and Trees, 
are always at their best in June. Peonies in early June, Dahlias and Gladioli in 
late August, Hardy Perennials from late May to fall frosts. An ideal time to 
make your selections, for planting around your home, is while the above men- 
tioned are in bloom; so often catalogue descriptions vary in one’s mind, from the 
reality. Visitors are always welcome at “WILMORDBS.”’ 
We strive at all times to give service to our customers; we instruct every 
one in our employ, to be efficient and courteous. We will greatly appreciate 
being informed of any act to the contrary.
