PARRELLA DAHLIA GARDENS 
Dear Sir: 
There may be better bi-colors than Wanda Meade, but after growing it last season it 
becomes a case of ‘“‘that I gotta see.’’ I expect I will want more Wanda Meades. May I receive 
your *48 catalog?

Dear Mr. Parrella: 
Last year for the first time we had a real nice display of Dahlia blooms. That is fine enough 
to be proud of and to feel that our efforts had been rewarded. We followed your instructions in 
every way. 
Sincerely,

Please let me tell you that from a $5.00 package of seed purchased from you last year I 
grew dahlias that were a revelation — almost unbelievable! They were by far the most beautiful 
dahlias I have ever seen, regardless of price, and (from seed).

Please accept my sincere thanks. I am thrilled beyond words. Let me say, I never opened 
a package more beautiful. It came thru in perfect condition. It’s a pleasure to do business with a 
high class concern who I think have the finest grade Dahlias in the U. S. A.

My Dear Mr. Paryrella: 
We thought you might be interested to know how our plants stood the long trip to San 
Diego. They arrived this afternoon, just five days after being postmarked in New York, in excellent 
condition.

Dear Mr. Parrella: 
I am very much pleased by the unusual selection of roots that have just come. I have always 
had very fine ones from you and have given your name and your catalog to others. 
Thank you very much. 
Sincerely yours, 
South Glens Falls, N. Y. 
Kindly include a copy of your 1948 catalog as I have lost the one received and used the 1947 
one for items listed above. 
With thanks again for the courtesy and attention that you gave my sister, brother-in-law and 
myself on our afternoon visit to your gorgeous dahlia fields last August. It surpassed all of our 
expectations. Such a variety of bloom and contrast in color. A truly rare treat.
