The World's Most Select Dahlias, 1922 11 



Kathryn Kernan. Introduction of 1920. This is a variety of 

 which I cannot speak too highly. It is a typical Hybrid Show 

 in form, is a very free bloomer, and has extremely large 

 flowers on extraordinary stems. Color is white at base deep- 

 ening to a flesh pink, then to a clear rose pink at the tips 1.00 



King of Shows. Deep butter yellow of a solid color throughout. 

 Every petal is most perfectly quilled and uniquely formed. 



A mammonth flower on long stems 3.00 



Miss Helen Hollis. A gigantic deep scarlet flower. The best of 

 the red Show Dahlias 50 



Mrs. C. D. Anderson. This might be called an improved Cuban 

 Giant. It is a rich purplish crimson, and bears large flowers 

 freely on the best of stems 75 



Mrs. Mary Bowman. An exquisite shade of deep golden yellow 

 with the reverse of petals slightly tinged magenta. A strong 

 thrifty grower in every respect 50
