THE DAHLIA 
The Dahlia is the greatest of all Flowers. They 
have been grown up to 18 inches in diameter and as 
small as one half inch. You do not have to be an 
expert to get this wonderful flower to produce top 
quality flowers. There are all colors—except blue— 
and all types of petal formations. Variegated colors, 
bi-colors and solid blend colors. No two varieties 
are alike and there are well over 500 being grown. 
You get more out of them, for your money, time and 
effort, than any other flower. Great strides have been 
made in the development of the Dahlia in the last ten 
years. Try some of the old favorites and a few of 
the new ones and you will see what we mean. 
In case we are sold out of a variety we shall 
supply nearest variety or one equally as good 
or better, unless you advise otherwise.
