Our Own Introductions For 1938 
It has become a habit with some dahlia buyers to ord¬ 
er only Achievement Medal, Honor Roll, etc., dahlias. 
Our experience has been that most of these are poor 
performers: either weak in growth, bloom or root. A 
dahlia to deserve such honor should be tried out in 
every way and proven good for the general public, in¬ 
stead of giving it the honors on a bloom which has 
been grown in a highly cultured method, by experienced 
growers. 
Our introductions have not been sent to Trial Grounds, 
nor Exhibition Halls, They have been tried out under 
ordinary culture and care such as the veriest amateur 
would give them, thus proving their extreme worthiness 
and superiority in bloom, growth and root-making. Such 
honored varieties as, for instance, American Legion, 
Kaweah and others, while elephantine in size, are abso¬ 
lutely worthless for the avrage grower as he can do 
nothing with them. 
We are introducing a few new varieties this season, 
all tried and found “true” and satisfactory in every way. 
Here they are: 
TENDER MEMORIES, this is best described as a light 
mauve or orchid Kathleen Norris, in color, size and 
type. Has far better stems, blooms more freely, 
a much stronger growth and an excellent clump of 
roots. It is outstanding in every way. Plants are 
$5.00, roots $10.00. 
ROYAL SCARLET is a Formal Decorative 8 to 10 
inches in diameter, and 6 inches deep, owing to the 
recurving of the petals almost to the stem. It is a 
brilliant deep scarlet, with reverse of petals ivory. 
Has good habits and merits every honor. Plants, 
$5.00, Roots, $10.00. 
WAR ADMIRAL is an Informal Decorative of giant 
size and has all good qualities; will satisfy the 
hard to please with its orange bronze coloring, shad¬ 
ing out to a golden buff. You can’t miss this one 
at the low price of $1.25 per plant, $2.50 per root. 
OLD IVORY will please you and reward you as well, 
if you like a Formal Decorative 8 to 10 inches a- 
cross and 4 inches deep. It is a pure Old Ivory in 
color, and has no faults. Plants, $1.50; Roots, $3.00. 
ANNUNCIATION, another new one, has same form, 
size and habits as Jane Cowl, but the color is pure 
gold shading to a burnt orange center. If you have 
grown Jane Cowl, you know how satisfactory this 
one will be. Plants, 75c; Roots, $1.50. 
PHOENIX, is a difficult variety to describe. We call 
it an Informal Decorative, size about 9x5 inches, 
and the colors are: a burnt orange face and maroon 
lake reverse to each petal. Imagine such color¬ 
ing! You will like it’s blooming traits, too. Plants 
are $2.50; Roots, $5.00.

Guarantee to please.
