To all our friends:- 
It is with great pleasure that we present to you 
our price list for 1937. You will note that our lists 
are being constantly revised, new and worthwhile 
varieties being added, while obsolete varieties are 
omitted. 
We would like to meet you all personally, but 
of course we know that is impossible, so we use this 
price list as our ambassador of good will. It’s not 
elaborate nor gaudy but, neither are we. We are just 
plain, dirt gardeners. When we ship an order to 
Florida, California, Canada, or wherever its destina¬ 
tion might be, we try to imagine whether or not the 
person receiving the order will have as much fun 
growing these plants as we have, and then concluding 
that they will. 
And so, it is with deep appreciation to each and 
every one of you, (because it is you that keeps us 
in this business of disseminating the love of this beau¬ 
tiful flower, the Dahlia) for your past patronage, and 
assuring you that your future patronage with us will 
receive the same valuable consideration, we are. 
Respectfully, 
THE RAINBOW GARDENS. 
P.S.—To those of you who have not grown our 
Dahlias in the past, all we ask for is just a trial order. 
You can’t go wrong.
