GENERAL INFORMATION — Terms and Conditions of Sale 
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 
WE EXERCISE the greatest care to keep our varieties pure and true to name and at all times 
hold ourselves in readiness to replace stock that proves otherwise. It is mutually under- 
stood that in no instance shall J. H. Burton’s Nursery be held liable for an amount 
greater than the original purchase price. All orders accepted subject to stock on hand 
Or circumstances beyond our control. 
WE GUARANTEE every plant to be true to name, up to grade, and in good condition when 
it leaves the Nursery. We will replace without charge any proved otherwise, provided it 
is reported promptly. 
We will make one free replacement at the first proper planting season, and any plant 
planted by us in a location approved by us that dies within six months, provided it has 
received proper care and the account has been paid in accordance with our terms. 
ALL COMPLAINTS, if any, must be made in writing. No phone calls acknowledged. If 
replacement is desired, we suggest that you bring your plant and sales slip in any day 
except Saturday or Sunday, and plants can be obtained immediately. This must be 
done within the guarantee period. Planting charge additional, if desired. 
ALL HARDY ornamental plants and trees purchased at our Nursery or sales grounds and not 
planted by us will not be guaranteed. 
These guarantees do not cover losses due to droughts, storms, severe winters, insect 
injury, disease, or other factors beyond our control. Should we not have the same plant 
in stock, we reserve the right to substitute the nearest variety and size of equal value. 
NO LAWN WORK of any kind guaranteed. 
The above guarantee supersedes any previous guarantees. 
PLANTS SPECIALLY SELECTED at the Nursery will be sold at prices commensurate with the 
specimen chosen, irrespective of the listed prices. 
CONSULTATION AND MAKING OF PLANS. For suggestions and advice by mail or at our 
office there is no charge. If you will bring your property measurements and sketches 
or photos, we will be pleased to help you. Where simple sketches or plans are required 
locally, or at a distance when special trips are not necessary, there is no charge. 
As the time required to visit your property, take measurements and notes and prepare 
a detailed survey and plan depends upon distance and other conditions, it is impractical 
to quote costs beforehand. Oftentimes the cost of this service can be deducted if the 
resultant order justifies it. 
TERMS: Cash, excepting established accounts, to which we will gladly extend 30 days credit, 
or longer if specific arrangements are made at time of sale. 
BALLING AND BURLAPPING (B&B): The specification ‘‘B&B’’ in this list signifies digging 
with ball of earth and enclosing in burlap, which, where indicated, is included in the 
price. For digging all other plants in this manner there is an additional charge as 
follows:

of this service is more than offset by the satisfaction of knowing that your plants have 
been given the right start. This service will run approximately one-third of the cost of 
plants. Minimum charge of $5.00.
