warm or too cold, to carry any distance and arrive in good 
condition, but if preferred or more convenient to have them 
delivered by Parcel Post, we will send them that way and see 
that they are properly packed for such shipment, but when so 
sent we cannot guarantee them to arrive on time or in good 
condition. No packing charge, orders will be booked at any time 
and plants will be sent when ready. Not less than one dozen
