be further 
Our soil produces solid, vigorous 
bulbs, that give splendid results in any section of the country. Practically all bulbs we send out are our 
own growing. It will pay you, in the purchase of dahlias, to buy direct from a grower who can supply 
his own stock as this lessens the chance of mistakes. 
OUR WARRANTY 
See page 1. In case of dahlias not growing 
they must be returned to us by July 1, of the 
season when purchased, with our labels attached. 
Sometimes bulbs are slow to sprout, but if at the 
end of 20 days they have not done so, remove the 
earth carefully from the bulb and, if still dormant, 
return it to us. We can send you another at once. 
However, if it reaches us too late for planting that 
season, we will book the order for filling the sea- 
son following. Flowers considered untrue to name 
should be sent to us by parcel post for verification. 
Any extras we may include free in orders are not 
subject to Our Warranty. 
DAHLIA ORDERS 
Will be filled during April and May, but may be 
sent to us any time for booking, and will be filled 
in the rotation received. No dahlia orders will be 
filled after June 1, except collections, which will be 
sent up to June 15 if stock is unsold. ALL 
DAHLIA PRICES POSTPAID. 
DAHLIA CULTURE 
We publish a bulletin telling how to care for 
dahlias. This is sent free to all if requested and a 
copy is included with each order of bulbs.
