Terms and Remarks.

SHIPPING SEASON. Most plants in this Catalogue are ready to ship as soon as we have open weather here (usually about March roth), and continue up to May 15th, and later for some varieties.

NAME AND ADDRESS. Please write name and address plainly on all orders or

letters sent us.

OUR GUARANTEE. We guarantee to send out good stock, true to name and in good growing condition when it leaves the nursery. Should anything prove not to be true to name we agree to replace the stock free or refund the original amount paid, but in no case will we be responsible for an amount greater than that paid for the stock. On orders shipped by mail or express, we will guarantee arrival in good order. In case of damage by mail or express, we will refill the order at our own expense.

SPECIAL ESTIMATES. Where large lots of plants are wanted for fitting up new places, parks or public grounds, we shall be pleased to make special estimates. We have a large trade in this class of work, and can give satisfaction.

SHIPPING FACILITIES are unsurpassed. Being near Philadelphia and New York, we can ship by most direct route by boat or rail to all points.

OUR TERMS ARE CASH with the order, except where special terms have been agreed on. Small orders should always have cash to the full amount enclosed with the order, as we could not afford in the hurry of spring trade to make out bills and charge every order we ship.

HOW TO SEND MONEY. The following ways areallsafe: Registered Letter, Post Office Money Order, Express Order and Bank Draft. Onany order over $2 you may de- duct the cost of sending the money. Smallamounts may be sent in stamps, but at risk of sender.

OUR LOCATION. Hammonton is situated right in the center of the fruit-growing section of New Jersey. Thousands of acres of Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries, Grapes, Pears, Peaches and other fruits are under cultivation. The soil is particularly adapted to the cultivation of fruits and flowers.

OUR WAY OF DOING BUSINESS is direct with customers. We employ no agents, as the cost of selling in this way is often greater than the cost of the plants.

LOW EXPRESS RATES. The express companies have made a special rate for trees, plants, etc., of 20 per cent. reduction from the merchandise rate. You will get the benefit of this on all express shipments.

MAY WE SUBSTITUTE? It occasionally happens that the stock of some varie- ties is all out before the season is over. In such cases may we take the liberty to substi- tutea similar variety of the same season ? If you do not want us to do this, please write ‘‘No substitution” on the order.

32 YEARS OF BUSINESS. Our nursery was established in 1864, making it 32 years of business. Some of our first customers are still buyiog of us. This is proof of our reliability. We could not hold the trade of discriminating planters for years, if our stock was bot reliable. For further proof of our ability to do as we agree, we refer you to J. L. O'Donnell, United States Express Agent; The People’s Bank, and John T. French, Postmaster of Hammonton, New Jersey.

LONG SHIPMENTS. We ship with perfect success to all parts of the world. Do not hesitate to place your order with us because we seem too far away. We ship small plants by mail, and larger ones by express and freight.

GRATIS PLANTS. Where the character of the order will allow it, and always on orders shipped by express, we include some gratis plants to help pay express charges. Please accept the extra plants as evidence of our appreciation of your orders.

| Hardy Flowers.

Some advantages in using Hardy Flowers instead of so many annuals and tender bedding plants will be apparent to all who will stop to investigate. The garden of Hardy Flowers commences to furnish flowers in March, and will be an object of beauty and interest for two months before the tender plants are fairly growing. In autumn the first hard storm spoils such plants as Geraniums, Coleus, etc., but with the Hardy Flowers it is quite different ; many species are just in their prime at this season. After the first hard frost the annuals and tender plants are dead and gone, not one cent of the spring’s investment remains. It merely supplied a temporary garden, that must be en- tirely rebuilt the next season. How different is it with the Hardy Flowers, requiring only in some cases a little protecting mulch, and in others no protection, to insure their return next spring, more beautiful than ever. And who but watches with joy, the first growth in spring, as one after another of the favorites buds again into life! The first few flowers that bloom, maybe while snow still remains, give a deep pleasure that no com~ plicated arrangement of gorgeous colors in summer can excite.

Management of Hardy Plants.

It is sometimes claimed that the hardy plants need no care; that they are perennial,. and all that isnecessary is to plant. Thisisnotso. While there are some varieties that will do well for years with total neglect, it will always be found to pay to give them good care. In spring, such as have been protected over winter must have the covering re- moved. Others will need to have dead stalks of last season removed. Throughout the season it will be best, as some plants go to seed, to remove those shoots that have passed their period of beauty, to make way for others.

Our Specialties.

In the following pages will be found a price-list of the principal products of our nur sery. We donot grow as extended a collection of plants as are to be found in some of the larger nurseries, but rather confine ourselves to such specialties as can be grown most advantageously here, particularly the finer native treesand plants, By growing these in large quantities we are able to sell at a lower price than is asked by those less advan- tageously situated. There will be found in our list many rare and beautiful plants that are to be had of but few other nurseries. Our collection will be found particularly com- plete in what are known as ,

Pine Barren Plants.

These comprise some of the most beautiful of all shrubs, as well as many herbaceous plants of great beauty. It is a well known fact that the nurseries of this country are deficient in American plants that are highly prized in Europe.

Collected Plants.

There are many desirable species of native plants that can be had, of very satisfac- tory quality, as well as at a much lower price, by collecting the young plants that have come up naturally in the wild country. This branch of the business we have brought to a high state of perfection. We have spent large sums of money and many years of valu- able time in finding definite localities for the various native plants. That our efforts in this line have been appreciated, we are assured by the steady growth of this branch of our business.

Our Novelties.

KOSTELETZKIA VIRGINICA. (** Pink Beauty.’’)

This rare and beautiful plant was first cultivated in our nursery in 1891, and during the last four years we have thoroughly tested it for garden culture. It is a

to 3 feet high, with large, deeply -lobed leaves, branching freely, each branchlet being thickly set with buds, which oven in succession, so that its season of bloom is very long. The individual flow- ers are more than 2 inches in diameter and of the most beautiful shade of pink im- aginable, opening perfectly flat, in this respect differ- ing from allothermembers of this family of plants. As a garden plant it will become very popular, as a mass of it in bloom, cov- ered with its elegant pink flowers, is truly grand, and this, coupled with its easy eulture, will make it a favorite with all. We have grown it with complete succesS on very dry ground, but it will be even finer on damp ground, and it is not injured in the least if the ground be very wet in winter. It will posi- tively bloom the first year th 1S from seed sown in the open SSS SSS BS SS ground in May, eee Rey it PAE ey 2 germinates very readily. OSIRIS VE AIEEE It will, of course. be much better the second or third year. Plants put out in April will make a grand show the first season, It should be mulched in winter. We urge everyone who has a garden to try the ‘Pink Beauty” this year. It is no untried novelty, as we have grown during the last four years upwards of 75,000 plants of it, and have had every opportunity to satisfy our- selves as to the beauty and desirability of this plant for general culture.
