DAHLIAS give such universal satisfaction that we 
guarantee this year's Dahliadel Introductions to prove 
entirely satisfactory to the extent of replacement with 
the same variety or one of any other of equal value 
from the following season's catalog. Satisfaction and 
safe delivery guaranteed. 
NOTICE ON GREEN PLANT SHIPMENTS. Plants 
will be shipped from April 15th to July 15th, but can¬ 
not be sent C. O. D., as this causes delay. When 
roots and plants are ordered together, roots will be 
held and shipped with the plants unless otherwise 
specified. 25 cents must be included with all plant 
orders to cover special delivery except where there is 
no special delivery service at post office of desti¬ 
nation; in which case, send 15 cents for special han¬ 
dling. We pay all regular postage. We do not guar¬ 
antee safe delivery unless plants are shipped as above. 
GREEN PLANTS 
Dahliadel plants are sprouts or cuttings taken from 
stock of named varieties, grown in specially built 
greenhouses rooted in sand benches in a propagation 
house, potted and grown inside until established, then 
moved to cold frames for hardening off, ready for 
shipping and field planting. 
The popularity of Dahliadel green plants is growing 
fast, and we suggest that you give them a trial on 
your next order if you are buying the higher-priced 
varieties, as plants are one-half root price in most 
cases. Green plants, when properly grown from 
healthy stock, give equal or better blooms, than from 
roots, and most varieties make a nice clump. The way 
the plant is grown has a lot to do with root pro¬ 
duction, but we believe by following our cultural in¬ 
structions you will have roots as well as blooms. 
Dahliadel green plants are properly grown and 
hardened for shipment and in our specially designed 
shipping box have been successfully sent all over the 
United States.
