FLOWER SHOWS 
Beginning with the Spring Flower and Garden Show in April 
we conduct a number of instructive and colorful shows con- 
tinuously through the season. Watch for the announcements! 
MALMO GUARANTEE—We guarantee the trueness-to-name and 
vitality of our shrubs, trees, plants, seeds, and bulbs to the full 
amount of the purchase price. 
NURSERY STOCK REPLACEMENTS—We guarantee all plants to be 
true to name and healthy when they leave our nursery. There is al- 
ways a natural mortality in the moving of any living thing, and it 
is not necessarily the fault of the plant that it does not take hold in 
its new location. Different soil, fertilizer damage, poor drainage, in- 
adequate water down deep into the roots in spring and summer, as 
well as different care, all have a bearing on plant mortality upon 
transplanting. In spite of these conditions over which we have no 
control, we do follow the procedure of taking half of the loss and 
replacing at half price, unless, of course, the plants died through 
obvious neglect. In no case shall we be liable for more than the 
purchase price paid to us. 
AVAILABILITY—Roses, fruit and shade trees are shipped to you 
from December Ist to May 15th and again after the dormant period 
arrives in the Fall. All-evergreens are Balled & Burlapped and can be 
shipped and planted all the year around. 
INSPECTION—Alll the stock that leaves our nursery carries the 
orange sticker of the Washington Department of Horticulture. This 
is your insurance that all stock has been inspected and is found 
to be free of disease and of first class quality.
