THE DAHLIA FOR THE MILLIONS 
America’s Greatest Dahlia Sensation 
HILL’S PINK SUPREME 
Hill, 1939, I. D. Probably the finest introduction ever placed 
on the market by any grower for the florist and cut flower trade. 
Blooms run around eight inches, on the longest stems of any 
dahlia in cultivation today, bar none. The greatest dahlia since 
the advent of Jersey Beauty, a long time ago. Just as good a 
keeper when cut and stems very much longer. Very prolific 
with dark green insect-resistant foliage, stems starting from the 
bottom of the plant and running straight up three to five feet 
long with this fine, dark, pink dahlia looking you right in 
the face. 

We are so much enthused with this wonderful new creation 
in a dahlia that we are willing to stake our entire reputation 
over a period of many years on this wonderful new creation. 
We desire to see this dahlia in every garden from coast to 
coast, therefore the following very low prices: 
ROOTS $1.00 ROOTED CUTTINGS 35¢ EACH 
DAHLIA CULTURE 
Space will not permit us to go over every detail in regard to soil. The fellow 
that tries this is taking quite a thing on his hands. Grow Dahlias where you 
would grow a good garden, this is all we have to offer. 
DAHLIA STORAGE—This seems to be the big elephant on the hands of most 
growers. We suggest as follows, read carefully. Dig today and store today, not 
tomorrow. Do not allow to wilt under no consideration. As you dig, do not break 
necks, trim off all suckers and cut off the stalk as close as possible. Every inch 
of stalk is an inch of trouble. Avoid stem rot in this manner, store in barrels or 
boxes or large metal containers you can find at most any city dump. Cover all 
roots with peat moss, saw-dust or other material but our best suggestion is this, 
use old newspapers; wad these up and pack in just as snug as possible using 
all you possibly can. If you are a Flower Grower Reader, check this in their 
November issue. NOTE—The more parafine paper you can use the better. Such as 
bread wrappers, etc. Pack plenty snugly on top of the container or better still use 
Vermiculite. 
ROOTED CUTTINGS—Plant in pots as soon as received from us. Not heavy 
soil and use no fertilizer to burn the tender roots. Grow as long as you can in a 
cold frame to harden off the same as you would any plant, such as tomatoes, 
etc., that you would secure from the greenhouse.
