How We Ship 
We ship house plants post- 
paid to you directly from our 
own greenhouses as soon as 
weather permits. They are 
shipped separately, not inelud- 
ed with garden seed or nursery 
stock shipments. 
Nothing takes the place of 
house plants during the win- 
ter, when all outdoor flowers 
and foliage are gone. Even in 
summer they are enjoyable in- 
doors, but then, if you wish, 
most of them can be put out- 
doors in beds, borders, pots, 
porch and window boxes.
