DURING freezing weather we acknowledge orders for plants and will 
make shipment EARLY SPRING when temperature in Detroit is above 40°. We 
guarantee SAFE ARRIVAL so your money is safe with us, but we urge you to 
ORDER EARLY because many of the newer varieties are in scarce supply. 
We will not substitute unless you mention 2nd choice. If temporarily out of 
stock may we hold your order and send that variety a bit later? 
OUR CATALOG is sent regularly to customers on record. 
EVERYTHING is priced POSTPAID to your door (no C. O. D.). 
ALL PLANTS are true to name, top quality and size, State Inspected and 
free from insect pests and disease. Varieties not listed may be under propaga- 
tion; your inquiries are solicited.
