VISITORS WELCOME 
Our show gardens are located on corner of Walker Ave.

Leonard St. city limits. Call and get acquainted. It pays. 
Our gardens and field plantings are at their best us- 
ually from September 15th on, as most of the late plant- 
ings are in bloom then. Many varieties bloom early in 
August even if we do not finish planting until July Ist. 
GREETINGS FOR 1951 
The 1950 growing season was very changeable, but the 
spring rains came just right for my planting so all the dahlias 
had a fine start and were strong healthy plants when hit by 
an unusually early frost on Sept. 26. A few varieties we 
have left out on account of being completely sold out, while 
others we do not have enough new roots to offer. So we 
have added others to take their place. 
Thanking the many customers for their nice letters and 
continued patronage. Hoping my 1951 book meets your 
approval. 
Yours Respectively, 
A. T. EDISON
