Orchids To You-- For Christmas 
we send you a present, in the form of the Gift Certificate below. Nien SAPRCP ae 
A couple of months ago, on yellow pages 3 and 4, you were offered a choice selection of MATURE HYBRIDS IN 
SHEATH. Many of them sold promptly and have produced excellent flowers for nein new owners, according to the 
“rave” letters received from customers. 
Others. flowered right here at home, on my benches—or may have flowered by the time this reaches you. They won't 
bloom again until the next lead has matured and formed its sheath. 
But ASE HYBRIDS have proved themselves well worth the listed prices! So, by applying the attached Christmas 
Gift Certificate on your choice of the plants available, you will be getting much better than the usual ‘Bargain of 
the Month.” 
They are all healthy, vigorous, well-grown plants, professionally potted in new Orchid pots, 51/2-inch or 6-inch size, 
and should not require repotting until after their next flowering. Each plant has five or more bulbs. 
UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTEE. If you feel the plant you receive is not as represented, and not worth the price you 
paid, repack it carefully in the box in which it arrived and send it back to me, express charges collect. Your money will 
be promptly refunded. 
Orders to be shipped before Christmas should reach me not later than Decem- 
ber 15th. 
If yours is not to be a Christmas gift, please state when, after Christmas, you 
would like shipment. 
Do you want yours to have the benefit of our vaunted Florida Sunshine this 
Winter? Pay for it now and request Spring delivery. You’ll be notified before 
your plant is shipped next Spring. 
Additional Gift Certificates on request, any time before the January 15th deadline. 
The Ryersons wish you a Very Merry Christmas! And to help make it a more Anes Christmas for é you,
