ways upright. Color, clear, bright canary yellow. 
A consistent prize winner, and a winner at the 
World’s Fair. Roots, $4.00; Plants, $2.00 
MARYLAND GLORY (Maryland D. G.), g e, 
Bloom 9x5, Bush 4 ft. A most satisfactory 
bloomer from early to late. Perfect blooms of 
Tyrian rose shaded crimson carmine are borne 
in profusion on good stems. A fine strong grower.

broad, heavy petals. Stems strong and erect.

WHITE EMPRESS (Jost 82), c g e, Bloom 8x5, 
Bush 5J4 ft. This dahlia is a strong, healthy 
grower with leathery foliage. Stems are strong 
and erect. Color, almost a pure white. Not an 
over abundant root maker, either from roots or 
plants. Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
WHITE WONDER (Black-Kemp), 1933, g e, 
Bloom 11 x 7, Bush 514 ft. The giant blooms 
are pure white with long, pointed, twisted, and

pearance. This dahlia comes to us as a cross 
of Fort Monmouth and Ida Perkins. The bush 
is a strong, vigorous grower, branching from the 
ground. Stems long and stiff. Foliage thick and 
leathery. It is a very good root-maker and well 
worth your trial. Roots, $7.50; Plants, $3.75

after second pinching out. Centres are high and 
full throughout season. Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
NORTH’S YELLOW (Peacock-Dahliadel 85), c 
g e, Bloom 10 x 4, Bush 6 ft. We do not have 
many varieties that seem to enjoy August heat, 
but this one does, and will produce perfect 
blooms for us when lots of varieties will not. 
This dahlia does well in the North and South, as 
it is such an early bloomer and rapid grower. 
Color, a clear sulphur yellow without any shad¬ 
ings. Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50 
WALDHEIM SUNSHINE (Peacock 85), c g e, 
Bloom 10 x 4J4, Bush 5^4 ft. This giant yet 
graceful dahlia is very popular. A true deep 
yellow that will show up yellow under artificial 
light. The reflex is darker, and there is a rich 
golden suffusion around the beautiful full, high 
centre. The bush growth is good, stems are 
strong and erect. It is a sturdy grower and free 
bloomer. Centers full. Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50
