ACHIEVEMENTS 
In the past three years we made two shows, the Georgia State Show in ’36 and ’37. 
In ’36 we won 24 Blue Ribbons, the Holzman Trophy, Achievement'Award, Sweepstakes 
and three special vases. 
In ’37 we won 29 Blue Ribbons, Rich’s Challenge Trophy, Holzman Trophy, Davison- 
Paxon Special for Sweepstakes of the Show. This was against the hottest competition 
in the southeast. Check up on prizes claimed won by others and ask what competition 
they had. 
In 1938 customers pulled down prizes in shows in eight different states. One cus¬ 
tomer in North Carolina won eight Blue Ribbons on blooms from a $2.00 bulb purchase. 
One customer in Indiana won at their local show, another customer won Championship 
Spike in amateur class. Space forbids us publishing letters from many pleased and 
satisfied customers.
