TERMS OF SALE 
PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING 
PRICES. This catalog cancels all previous quotations written or oral. Prices quoted 
are for single divisions and flowering size bulbs and not for clumps or extra large bulbs 
unless so stated. Please do not ask us to send you extra large bulbs. We treat all of 
our customers alike. If, for any reason, you really want larger bulbs than we supply add 
50% to the price of the bulb as quoted in this catalog and we will go out of our way 
to oblige you. When price per dozen is quoted, the price of a single bulb is 10% of the 
dozen rate. 
TERMS. Cash with order by check, draft, money order, currency or stamp. Residents 
of California please include 3% sales tax. 
SHIPMENTS. All orders are sent FOB, Arcadia. When ordering please indicate in 
the space provided on the order form whether you will remit the postage upon receipt 
of the package or whether you want it sent via postage collect or express collect. If not 
so indicated we will send the package postage collect. 
SUBSTITUTIONS. As a general rule we do not substitute unless authorized to do 
so. However we suggest that you indicate a second choice when ordering or authorize us 
to use our judgment on substitutions of other varieties in case of shortage by checking 
the space provided at the bottom of the order sheet. 
CULTURE. Because of the great diversity of the materials we offer and the growing 
conditions of the purchasers we find it impossible to send out detailed growing instruc- 
tions. We have noted in the body of this catalog the broad basic cultural requirements 
and you have to take up from there on and use your own judgment. One pointer: please 
don’t be too anxious and too much in a hurry to grow the bulbs. We find that more 
persons fail from this cause than from any other. They over water, over fertilize, dig 
around the bulbs to see if the roots are starting to grow, and the funny part of it is that 
when the bulb can’t take it and finally up and dies the blame is usually placed on the 
bulb or the nurseryman because, as she says “I did everything and it died.” Well, Lady, 
you did too much! 
ORDER EARLY and avoid disappointments. Place your order for the whole year 
right now and we will mail the bulbs periodically at the planting time or when they are 
available. That way you will be more certain of receiving what you order and we will 
have an idea of the number of bulbs we will need for the season. 
WE GUARANTEE the plants we send out to be true to name, and to arrive in good 
condition. When you receive the plants or bulbs examine the contents of the package at 
once. If an item is found to be in unsatisfactory condition, pack that particular item and 
return to us dead or alive. We will pay the postage and make satisfactory adjustment with 
you. If you accept the contents of the package we will assume that the material was re- 
ceived in good condition, and we are absolved of all further responsibility. No refunds 
or free replacements can be made once the plants have been planted.
