MERITORIOUS VARIETIES 
For many years we have specialized and listed the best of the new introductions of Dahlias 
for exhibition purposes as well as the best cut flower varieties. This year we are listing only 
those varieties which we consider most satisfactory from the point of view of robust growers, 
lasting qualities as a cut flower and for decorative purposes. ‘ 
All prices quoted are for strong tubers. Pot-grown plants, for delivery in May, can be sup- 
plied at one-half the price of the tuber. No plants of varieties where tubers are 75c or less 
in price.
