FRANK JOSIFKO, Proprietor
HAMMONASSETT GARDENS, MADISON, CONN.
FOREWORD
IN presenting the 1932 edition of my catalogue of Hardy Border and Rock Plants, I wish to announce that al¬ though I temporarily (during the year 1931) relin¬ quished the ownership of the "business which I personally originated and operated for so many years, I have again assumed sole proprietorship and shall continue it under the title of —
“HAMMONASSETT GARDENS”, adopted last year.
I wish to assure all my old friends and customers that their orders and inquiries shall receive my usual care and prompt attention.
My collection of Hardy Plants embraces a most select assortment of varieties for both Plower Borders and Rock Gardens. Their general character and hardiness have "been carefully noted in my gardens and are offered with reason¬ able confidence of their proving most satisfactory.
Soliciting a continuance of the patronage of all my old customers and hoping to hear from many new ones, I look forward with them to a happy and successful gardening year.
—PRANK JOSIPKO.
PRICES quoted in this list are net, F.O.B., and subject to no discounts. Our prices are as low as the high qual¬ ity of the stock warrants and are consistent with the prices of other reputable Arms. QUALITY must be considered in comparing prices.
ORDERS. To avoid disappointments we urge orders being placed early. All plants are offered subject to being unsold on receipt of order. Please give explicit ship¬ ping directions. Write your name and address dis¬ tinctly.
TERMS. Cash with order. Any orders involving other terms must be accompanied by satsifactory references. Postage or Express charges must be paid by customer. All orders accompanied with cash in full will be packed without charge.
C.O.D. ORDERS must be accompanied by a remittance of part payment to guarantee charges. All such orders can only be shipped by express.
SMALL ORDERS. We do not solicit orders for less than $1.00 and such orders will not be filled unless an allowance for packing be made. Packing charges are made at actual cost.
SUBSTITUTIONS. Unless specifically authorized to do so, no substitutions are made. We suggest, however, that we be instructed to use our judgment in such cases, as often, as the season advances, we may be sold out on some varieties, but we may still have equally choice items available which will prove as good as — and often superior to — the varieties ordered and which cannot be supplied.
RISK. Shipments travel at purchaser’s risk. Our respon¬ sibility ceases upon delivery to the transportation company and when we have their receipt for shipment.
ERRORS. Keep an exact copy of your order. We en¬ deavor to fill all orders correctly. When we are at fault we will make satisfactory adjustment.
NON-WARRANTY. We grow and ship only the best and healthiest plants, but we cannot give any warranty as to description or trueness to name, as conditions, climatic and soil, exist over which we have no control.
