NET GROWER’S PRICES FOR 1944 
These prices apply only on orders for 10 or more roots of any variety. If less than 10 roots are 
ordered add 3¢ per root to cover additional cost of labelling and packing. 
10% extra count is given in all cases — that is, 11 for 10, 110 for 100, etc., — except where roots 
are packed in special boxes or cartons ready for reshipment — to take care of any possible replace- 
ment claims and to help defray transportation charges. This extra count is figured on even mul- 
tiples of ten only. 
As packed for shipment roots weigh approximately 15 lbs. per hundred. 
All our stock is absolutely dependable, field grown from roots—not plants—planted early, carefully rogued and 
fully matured before dug. Stored under ideal conditions, all roots are fresh and plump, carefully cut, trimmed and 
sorted by expert cutters—no haggling, no broken necks, no culls—every root with a good eye, full of vitality and sure 
to please your most exacting customers. No stunts, mosaic or diseased plants in our fields, and no junk or untried 
varieties in our list. : ¢ 
If roots are to be wrapped and labelled individually for resale, add $1 per hundred to prices given. Where order 
is of sufficient size to warrant—one hundred or more roots of a kind, and not less than ten kinds—we will, if desired, 
use a special label, similar to our regular blue label, but bearing your own name or trademark, and printed on stock 
of your own choice of color (unless such color is already reserved for another customer) with our regular white semi- 
parchment wrapper, at same rate. This will enable you to offer stock under your own exclusive label. 
LARGE FLOWERING TYPES 
(A) Art or Peony-flowered (B) Ball or Show (C) Cactus (D) Decorative 
Some varieties are short crop, other varieties are being withheld to increase stock, and still others were completely 
sold in the field before going to press. Such varieties are described as “out for this year” and positively cannot be 
supplied even in small quantities until another season. 
Varieties listed in bold-face type are standard varieties, the best in their respective colors, grown in large quan- 
tities, and recommended as “best sellers.” 
At 2¢ Each — MIXED DAHLIAS 
Each season our last sorting of planting stock is 
thrown into one lot and planted as MIXED. These are all 
large double-flowering varieties—no seedlings, singles or 
pompoms included—and we believe the assortment is 
much better than could possibly be made up from sur- 
plus lots such as are usually used in mixtures. 
Where desired we can pack 5 of these roots in a two 
section corrugated box, size 5 x 6 x 2% inches, shipping 
weight 1 lb. at 14¢ per box (24 boxes per case), or 10 
roots in box 6 x 6 x 2% inches, shipping weight 1% lbs. 
at 25¢ per box (20 boxes per ease). Order in full case 
lots only. 
Completely sold out for this year. 
At 3¢ Each — MIXED UNDER COLOR 
Separate colors, red, pink, white, yellow, lavender, 
purple, bronze or variegated, as desired. :
