I now have 62 varieties of dahlias and have shopped 
from Maine to California also Canada, but the stock and 
courtesy I have received from you was very gratifying, 
as you may know by the order enclosed.

I received the shipment of dahlia plants in fine condition. 
The substitutions which you made in my order were more 
than satisfactory.

Dahlia bulbs received today in fine shape. The best 
packed shipment I have ever received. 
Thank you very much for the extra bulb.

I only ordered 4 green dahlia plants from you last year 
and they were the 1st green plants I ever ordered, so I 
had my doubts as to what to expect of them and now I 
just can’t say enough about them to express my opinion— 
but suffice it to say—“Your” green plant dahlias cannot 
be beat. I put them in the ground day after receiving 
them—and they went right on growing as if they had 
never been moved. Grew 9 to 10 feet tall and blooms 
were more than I expected. Now that they are dug there 
are at least 5 good sized bulbs to each stalk and they 
seem to be keeping well at this date.

I received the dahlia plants I ordered on last Monday, 
May 11, 1936 and they were all in excellent condition with 
the exception of “Rockley Moon”, which was slightly 
wilted. The others are all doing fine, but I don’t know if 
I am going to be able to save this one. 
Thanks very much for the extras and if the plants 
grow as I expect them to, I will probably send you some 
pictures of them this fall. 
R. E. SAMS.

I am enclosing 3 snapshots of dahlias grown from your 
plants the previous year and which made tubers. The 
California Idol was a plant this year and not only made 
wonderful growth and fine flowers, but every plant I 
bought of you, made a good clump this year.
