Visitors Welcomed 
Any time you are in our vicinity, please pay us a 
visit. We will be glad to meet you and show you our 
gardens, nursery and greenhouses. Blooming season 
for Dahlias and Chrysanthemums are from Septem- 
ber until killing frost. Many new introductions will 
be included in this year’s planting. 
Future Catalog Request 
If we do not have on file an order from you in 
the last three years you are automatically dropped 
from our mailing list. However we are glad to mail 
you our list if you will only request same. This is 
done to save catalogs as many changes are made 
in a period of three years and you may not be inter- 
ested in them any longer. 
Therefore we use this method to keep our files 
up to date with interested flower growers. Thanks. 
This list cancels all former price lists and orders 
will be filled only from this list. So do not order from 
other lists. 
Special Plant Information 
Dahlia plants are very satisfactory in regards to 
bloom and root production and do not cost as much 
as roots. Plants are developed from selected roots, 
grown in the greenhouse in clay pots, then shifted 
outdoors to harden off for more sturdy plants. You 
can’t go wrong using Dahlia plants. 
On all orders for dahlia plants, 25c extra must be 
sent to cover special handling charges. No C. O. D. 
order on plants unless 50% of the amount of the 
order is sent at the time the order is made. 
Varieties Not Listed 
If you are wanting a variety not listed, please 
write, as we may have it. We do not have all our 
stock listed. 
Also we will have other new introductions for 
1948 that are not on our list.
