DAHLIADEL NURSERIES 
INCURVED CACTUS 
AMERICAN TRIUMPH (Nuneviller 84), 1930, 
g e, Bloom 8x4, Bush 5 ft. Color, oriental or 
bright, clear red. Blooms, with high full centres, 
are held on long, straight stems. Petals are de¬ 
cidedly incurved when flower is fully developed. 
A good garden and exhibition flower, as it is an 
exceptionally good keeper. Susceptible to thrip 
and leaf-hopper injury, but is well worth your 
effort when sprayed or dusted. Roots, .50 
BALLET GIRL (Boston 78), g e, Bloom 8 x 3%, 
Bush 4 p 2 ft. Beautiful flowers of immense size. 
Color, orange, tipped white. Some flowers pure 
orange, with other variations on same bush. 
Early and free bloomer. .50 
F. W. FELLOWS (Stredwick 80), g e, Bloom 
8 x 354, Bush 5% ft. Still a favorite on the 
exhibition table. Flowers are of an ideal cactus 
form. Color, lively orange scarlet. 
Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
SPORT (Dahliadel 82), g e, Bloom 8x3 y 2 , Bush 
5% ft. Although a sport of F. W. Fellows with 
all its merits, it has never reverted to its parent. 
Deep buttercup yellow with buff shadings at 
centre. A wonderful exhibition flower and a 
favorite in the garden. Plants, .50

Recommendations for the Show Room 
It is our belief that the incurved, recurved, and straight-petaled cactus varieties should be combined in 
the same class, because when separated, there is bound to be confusion in judging and contention afterward. 
In other words, we recommend having Cactus and Semi-Cactus classes only. A few substantial color classes 
for Pompons would make them more interesting and give varieties other than Little Edith a chance. And, 
let’s not forget classes for the Miniatures! 
CONSERVATRIX (Holland 84), c g e, Bloom 
8 x 3J4, Bush 4J4 ft. One of the most artistic 
of the incurved cactus dahlias. Stems long and 
INCURVED CACTUS 
erect. Keeps as well when cut as the best of 
the decoratives. An early, free bloomer of good 
size and beautiful form. Color, bright geranium 
red. Bush and foliage very satisfactory. 
Plants, .50 
KAREOL (Carlee 83), g e, Bloom 6x2%, Bush 
4 ft. Incurved cactus dahlias on long, erect 
stems are rare. This variety not only qualifies 
as to stem but is decidedly incurved and a pleas¬ 
ing combination of maize yellow suffused and 
tipped carmine, shaded old rose. Comes into 
bloom very early. Plants, $1.00 
LILAC GLORY (Ballego 85), c g e, Bloom 6 x 2 l / 2 , 
Bush 4J4 ft. One of the prettiest cactus dahlias 
we know of. Color, soft violet rose with silver 
shadings. Stems are slender but strong and 
erect, making it ideal for baskets and arrange¬ 
ments. Blooms early and continuously. The 
more you cut the more it produces. 
Roots, $ 1 . 00 ; Plants, .50 
NEUER GRIFF (85), c g e, Bloom 5x2^, Bush 
4 y 2 ft. This variety comes close to being a minia¬ 
ture and will be if grown rather poor and not 
disbudded. Stems are stiff, bush robust and pro¬ 
duces just dozens of blooms. A fine little dahlia 
of violet rose shaded mauve. Plants, $1.00
