Our 1946 Introductions from Europe 
The dahlias listed below represent some of the best introductions 
coming from Europe since before'the War, and as far as we know they 
are the first, They have all the fine characteristics common with the 
foreign dahlia, long, slender, rigid stems, excellent flower formation 
and beautiful color. We believe they are worthy of a place in our Am- 
erican Gardens and are sure they will take more than their share of 
prizes in the Show Room.
