Greetings 
To Our Friends: 
It is with pleasure that we present you with our 
Dahlia Catalog for 1937. Your generous and kind 
support is thoroughly appreciated and inspires us to 
continued efforts to make available to you only 
the best. 
This catalog would not be complete if we were not 
to take advantage of the opportunity to thank you 
for your many letters telling of success obtained from 
stock purchased from me. We are grateful to those 
who have been able to visit our gardens as well as 
those who have inspected our exhibits at many of 
the shows we attended. 
To those who are familiar with our stock, no 
introduction is necessary and you have our word 
that the same quality will not only continue, but im¬ 
prove if such is possible. To those who have not tried 
our service, this is an invitation, that will prove a real 
opportunity for you to realize something you may not 
have been able to obtain elsewhere. No order is too 
small nor is any contract too large. We are pleased 
to serve you. 
Mr. Gordon Waaser, of Baldwin. N. Y.. will grow 
all our seedlings for the New York Show this coming 
season. 
Canadian Regulations—To import plants, bulbs, 
roots and other nursery stock into Canada, a special 
permit must be obtained from the Secretary of De¬ 
structive Insect and Pest Act Advisory Board, Dept, of 
Agriculture, Ottowa. Ontario. He will issue the permit 
and supply information as to how it is to be used.

Our Guarantee 
That our roots, plants and rooted cuttings are 
absolutely free from disease, are true to name, and 
will grow as we describe them. 
Our stock is sold at prices that are as reason¬ 
able as it is possible to make them, and where we 
have large stock of some varieties our prices are lower 
than of those that send our inferior roots. 
We ship all orders prepaid, by parcel post or ex¬ 
press so that you need not spend another cent after 
your order is paid to us. We see to it that your 
roots, plants or rooted cuttings will arrive safely and 
in good condition. 
We always include in our orders a surprise to you 
by including some variety of merit. 
While we grow close to 400 varieties, both Amer¬ 
ican and European, many of which we have not 
enough stock to list, as among these are new creation 
that will be released later by their originator, or by 
us as sale distributors, as well as introducing our own 
originations. 
While we maintain a trial gardens for our cus¬ 
tomers and other growers, in testing out seedling of 
which we make no charges, we must ask that our good 
friends write us before shipping any seedlings. 
May we ask that your order be sent to us as early 
as possible, so that we may not be obliged to tell you 
we are sold out of some varieties.
