SOMETHING NEW 
FLORISTAN?:m, 
GARDENS 
gives you 
Greeting 
We have good news for 
you. You who had our last 
year's catalog will notice 
that many of our dahlias 
are quite a little less in 
price this year. This re- 
duction in spite of rising 
production costs results 
from the wonderful root 
crop we enjoyed. It has 
cut our costs per root, and 
so we share this reduction 
with you. 

We are introducing sev- 
eral new dahlias this year. 
You will find these charming new dahlias described in the 
body of our catalog. We think you will enjoy them. 
NEXT year we shall have at least TWO introductions we feel 
are outstanding. They are FLORISTAN’S SNOW BRIDE and 
THE RED KNIGHT. The first is a brilliant white and the second, 
a shaggy deep red. Both are huge; both are formal; both are 
gorgeous. More about them next year.

OUR COLOR HARMONIZED COLLECTIONS 
bloom are always more artistic and effective in 
a garden than a number of spotty, unrelated dots 
of color, we have chosen for your consideration, several 
groups of dahlias that look particularly well together. 
Each collection includes dahlias that blend in perfect 
color harmony, but which are varied in type. These col- 
lections not only will furnish enough bloom in a similar 
color to make an effective mass display in your garden, 
they will give you in beautifully blended shades, a 
wealth of cutting material in varied forms and sizes.

more of these color harmonized collections in your gar- 
den. To help make them even more attractive to you 
we are passing on our saving in handling the roots in 
groups. It costs us less to sell you a collection than a 
group of unrelated roots. 
These are all choice roots. You will find their detailed 
description alphabetically arranged in this catalog. If 
you have limited space in your garden we advise two 
collections just alike rather than two different collec- 
tions. Then plant the two like roots together in the 
Floristan Gardens manner of planting. You will re- 
ceive complete planting instructions with the roots.
