We cordially invite you to visit our Nurseries at West New- 
bury and Newburyport where, for over one hundred years, the 
Cherry Hill Nurseries have been engaged in the growing of 
fine plants and trees. This long experience enables us to supply 
you with strong hardy plants that are sure to thrive in our 
rugged New England climate. Both Nurseries are located on 
improved roads easily accessible the year around. 
If impossible to visit the nursery, we invite you to order by 
telephone or mail. We use the greatest possible care in the 
selection of all stock and we will gladly pay return charges 
and replace any stock not satisfactory if notified within five 
days after arrival of goods. 
We are always glad to have customers order stock at the 
nursery where it can be seen, but cannot dig orders while 
the customer waits to take them. We will gladly tag and re- 
serve special plants if the type and size wanted is other than 
the usual nursery run, but as orders through the spring are 
promised several days in advance most of the time, it will be 
necessary to dig them in rotation as ordered and either hold 
them to be called for or to be delivered by our trucks. This is 
necessary as it is hardly fair to delay orders taken at an earlier 
date. 
The above does not apply to Perennials, Roses, Fruit 
trees or any of the various shrubs or evergreens that 
we often have dug ahead and ready to ship. 
During the spring planting season, our Nurseries are open 
from 7:00 A. M. until 5:00 P. M. every weekday. No orders 
can be dug Sundays, but visitors are welcome from 10:00 A. M. 
until 5:00 P. M. and orders may be left for later delivery. 
The balance of the year we are open from 8:00 A. M. until 
5:00 P. M. Closed Saturdays and Sundays.
