Front View of EXOTIC NURSERIES

Does your nurseryman take the best care of
your plants before shipping?

The Exotic Nurseries do.

This balled plant having" been submitted for three
months to our curing system, shows how the roots devel-
oped through the sacking.

Before shipping, “Exotic Nurseries” bailed plants are
submitted for a few days to this beneficial process.
This few days of curing, although not yet bringing the
roots through the sacking, is most favorable to the suc-
cessful growth of the plants.

Packing is done quite carefully at the “Exotic Nurseries.” It is a point second to none, that Ihe
plants should reach you as they leave us. Many nurseries overlcok this fact; but the
“Exotic Nurseries” give it its full importance.
