GREETINGS 
Here’s hoping you had a very successful 1935 
season and that your Dahlias may be even better in 
1936. Don’t forget the smaller sized Dahlias when 
ordering. Many Dahlia fans are finding great sat¬ 
isfaction in their beauty. 
Late ordering often leads to disappointment. 
Order early; it will help both the buyer and the 
seller. 
Don’t forget, all Dahlias listed are grown by me, 
and when my stock is exhausted no others will be 
purchased to fill orders. 
All my Dahlias are grown without forcing. This 
means more to the purchaser than most people 
realize. 
You will find many of the new 1935 and 1936 
Dahlias listed in this catalogue, but the beginner 
should not forget that the older listed Dahlias are 
the best of the very many Dahlias placed on the 
market in former years. The others have not been 
worth saving. High price does not necessarily 
mean the best. 
Send to me the names of your Dahlia friends, 
and for each order I receive from them I will allow 
you to select a generous amount from my cata¬ 
logue. Several of my customers are to make such 
selections this year. 
Visitors always welcome. Be sure to come dur¬ 
ing September and October to see the flowers in 
bloom. 
All stock guaranteed true to name and all roots 
to grow. Stock proving otherwise will be gladly 
replaced. I do not substitute. 
Postage paid on all orders of One Dollar or over. 
Cash with order. Stamps accepted on the smaller 
orders. 
Roots shipped after April 1st unless otherwise 
ordered. 
Plants shipped after May 15th; twenty-five cents 
extra for Special Delivery on Plants is good insur¬ 
ance. 
No Dahlia Plants shipped outside the Japanese 
Beetle Zone after June 15th.
