CUT FLOWERS 
There are many dahlias that are excellent for cutting, and 
some will last a week, and be nearly as perfect as when 
plucked. The following list are the ones we consider the 
best for that purpose: 
Purple Mist, Buckeye Bride, Jersey’s Beauty, Jane Cowl, 
Marshall’s Pink, Cavalcade, Fairy, Miss Belgium, Paul Pfitzer, 
Orchid Lady, Queen City, Golden Standard, Jersey’s Dainty, 
Laetare, and Baby Royal. 
We shipped a dozen Purple Mist blooms over 1200 miles 
and they were in good shape five days after they reached their 
destination. 
The cut flowers that we sell each year from our dahlia 
gardens more than pay our running expenses.

THE MAIL MAN JUST CAME IN 
North Freedon, Wis. 
Emmons’ Dahlia Gardens:— 
Just a line to tell you about the dahlias I got from you 
this spring. Dwight W. Morrow was the most beautiful flower 
I have ever seen, the flowers measured up to fifteen inches, 
in spite of the dry weather. Satan was another beauty. I 
am very much pleased with them. I hope to have another 
order from ' r ou next spring. 
Truly,
