DAHL!ADEL NURSERIES 
Formal 
Decorative Dahlias 
OLD HICKORY (Dahliadel 85), c g e, Bloom 
7x5, Bush 3J4 ft. The dahlia that is easy to 
grow. A rough-and-ready, rugged plant, semi¬ 
dwarf with each branch bearing a large bloom 
which is almost a ball with centres always full. 
Stems are ideal for basket arrangement, and the 
blooms are wonderful keepers. Color, madder 
red with apricot suffusions. Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
GRACE (Bibbs 86), c g e, Bloom 6 x 2^4, Bush 6 
ft. This dahlia will remind you a lot of Jersey’s 
Beauty in form, not quite as deep a flower, but 
will give you twice as many blooms. It might be 
called a blooming fool, from early to late with 
centres perfectly full, stems long and stiff, but not 
clumsy. Color, pure white tipped and suffused 
lavender. As a cut flower it is very profitable.

GRAF ZEPPELIN (Nolet 85), c g e, Bloom 8x4, 
Bush 8 ft. This dahlia will stand out as a sen¬ 
tinel in your garden as it is the strongest and 
tallest growing dahlia we offer with the exception 
of Jack’s Bean Stalk. The large white flowers 
are regular in formation with centres full. Stems 
are very long and erect. Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50 
Old Hickory 
IDA PERKINS (Montrose 85), c g e, Bloom 8x4, 
Bush 514 ft. One of our best all-around white 
dahlias, of fine form, with full centres, on erect 
stems. A good keeper when cut. Blooms early 
and continuously. Dark, leathery foliage. 
Roots, .50; Plants, .50 
JERSEY’S BEAUTY (Waite 87), c g e, Bloom 
6x4, Bush 6 y 2 ft. Probably the most popular of 
any dahlia, especially as a cut flower. The ideal 
pink for exhibition or florist use. Large, deep 
flowers of perfect form on long stems. Free, 
early bloomer, with exceptional keeping qualities. 
Roots, .35; Plants, .35 
KENTUCKY (Castlewood 87), c g e, Bloom 7x5, 
Bush 6 ft. This dahlia has the same ideal charac¬ 
teristics as Jersey’s Beauty, of which it is a sport, 
and apparently a stronger grower. Its color is the 
Jersey Beauty’s pink, with a lot of yellow and 
gold blended in, making it more of a salmon pink. 
Good for cutting. Roots, .50; Plants, .50
