CALIFORNIA’S BEST DAHLIA SEED 
The very best produced by an expert hybridizer. They are from the best introductions, have the 
highest germination of any we have ever planted and we believe they have not been excelled for 
fertility. MANY LETTERS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED COMMENDING THEM. Here is one— 
Mr. S. Levinthal, proprietor of Riverside Gardens, Trenton, New Jersey, writes: ‘Have been 
planting seed of dahlias for more than 25 years and by far these are the best. From the small 
gratis packet of Darcy Sainsbury seed I obtained a dozen fine double whites, two of which are 
A-l.” Mr. Levinthal wrote also in 1945: ‘Your seed are far ahead of any seed I have had in 
the last 25 years.”
