1 2019 CATALOG . Expires May 31,2019. DAHLIA DANDIES . mike & TRISH VALLER . 1717 SOUTH WOODLAND DRIVE. KALISPELL, MT 59901-5132. GREETINGS from MONTANA! We are finding the work involved with commercial production of dahlias too much at this time in our lives and have decided to retire. We will miss the interaction with our many faithful customers. It may take a couple of years to sell down our inventory, but the time has come. I plan to grow for shows and our small local market. DAHLIA Addiction maybe hard to overcome. Prices are reasonable, but not fire-sale . Tubers are in good condition. OUR GUARANTEE: We guarantee our tubers to have a viable eye and be true to variety.

2 When you receive your order, inspect the tubers. If you have any problems, let us know as soon as possible and before planting. We will gladly replace tubers or refund your money, however we may require tubers be returned. Cultivars are listed with a combination of classification number followed by position in group, name, size, form, color, plant height, year of introduction, and other info. Confirmation will be sent as soon as possible. We ship Priority Mail within the on Mondays and Tuesdays starting April 1 unless otherwise requested. Shipping and handling rates are at bottom of order form. Make payment by check or Money Order payable to Michael VALLER NO Credit Cards.
