practically impos- 
sible to make addi- 
tions or changes dur- 
ing shipping seasons. 
2. During the peak 
of our shipping sea- 
sons it may not be 
possible to answer 
gardening questions 
promptly. Many, 
many questions are 
answered in this 
catalogue if you 
read carefully. If 
you write, please 
use a separate sheet. 
3. Should it become 
necessaty to write 
about an order al- 
ready booked, please 
give us the date and 
number of the ac- 
knowledgment. 
4. Please remit with 
order. Currency is 
sent at your own 
risk. For charge ac- 
counts, see page 23. 
5. All stock is sent 
at best planting time 
for your locality as 
order acknowledg- 
ment will show. 
Plants are so packed 
that a few days’ 
delay will do no 
harm, provided they 
are left in the pack- 
ing and ey in a 
cool, shaded place. 
We would like to 
comply with spect- 
fied dates but this 
ofteninterferes with 
good nursery prac- 
tice and is almost 
impossible.
