Michigan customers please include 3% sales tax with all orders. 
We are offering this spring not only plants of the best older strains, but 
many of the 1952 All-America selections that you find pictured and described in cat- 
alogues and flower magazines. 
We are quoting prepaid prices, with the exception of pansies and violas, 
which are the the same as last year on the same items. That is, no increase in OUR 
prices. However, the government has made a radical increase in parcel post rates, 
running from 20% to 40%. For that reason we must ask all customers to add to their 
total order 10% to offset increased delivery charges. Points in Texas, Florida and 
all places west of kad add 15%. Michigan customers also add 3% sales tax.
