DAHLIAS 
INFORMAL DECORATIVE DAHLIAS 
DERRILL W. HART (Broomall 85), 
c g e, Bloom 10 x 4, Bush 6 ft. 
Color, deep orange or copper, shad¬ 
ing to henna brown. Has a wonder¬ 
ful stem, keeps well when cut, and 
is a free bloomer. It is a rapid 
grower, with heavy, dark foliage, 
and should be cut back severely dur¬ 
ing the hot weather. 
Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
DOROTHY STONE (F. & M.), 1930, 
g e. Bloom 9x4, Bush 4 ft. Suit¬ 
able for the garden and show room, 
although not as spectacular as 
Kathleen Norris. It is a darker pink 
and a deeper flower. A good grower 
with stems long and erect. 
Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50 
GIRL OF HILLCREST (Scott-Kemp 
86), 1932, g e, Bloom 10x4, Bush 
5 ft. You will derive a great deal 
of pleasure from growing this ex¬ 
cellent variety as it blooms early and 
continuously with flowers always well 
formed. It is suitable for exhibition 
whether it is the first or last show. 
Color is apricot buff or cadmium 
orange. A vigorous grower with 
stems long and erect. One of the 
most outstanding of the ’32 intro¬ 
ductions. Roots, $2.00; Plants, $1.00 
DWIGHT W. MORROW (Dahliadel 
86), 1931, g e, Bloom 12x6, Bush 
5 ft. A gigantic red dahlia that is 
admired by everyone. Its size, form 
and richness of color make it most 
spectacular. This dahlia likes rea¬ 
sonably heavy soil, but should not be 
forced or over-watered. From New 
Jersey and north we have had 
wonderful reports of its behavior, 
as it does best in cool weather. In 
the south, however, the heat will 
cause the stem to droop with the 
extreme weight of the massive 
blooms, and it should not be brought 
into bloom until cooler weather. It 
is a healthy grower, with heavy 
foliage, and by far the most out¬ 
standing red dahlia we have seen. 
A popular winner in many shows.

with high, perfect centres. A vig¬ 
orous grower. $1.00
