ANDREA ERIGSON ( *'** h ® r 11 * Masson) i d. 
1930 Roll of Honor dahlia. 
It fills the long needed want for a PURE WHITE 
exhibition dahlia. The huge flower is composed of 
broad oval petals with pointed and slightly twisted 
tips which give the flower a fluffy appearance. Center 
is solidly packed with quilled, pure white petals which 
show none of that yellowish green often found in 
so-called white dahlias. It is an early and free 
bloomer, foliage dark green and insect-resisting. The 
flowers are borne high above the foliage, often as 
much as 16 inches above the first leaf axle, stems 
perfectly straight and rigid. Flowers often attain 
10 inches to 12 inches, very free bloomer and early. 
Roots, $2.00; Plants, $1.00 
ASBURY PARK (Wood-Burpee). A 1931 introduc¬ 
tion that made good. A formal 
decorative of extreme size, formation of the flower 
being identical with that of the old favorite Mrs. I. 
de Ver Warner. Color is copper salmon or old rose 
and is one shade throughout. Flowers are fine for 
exhibition size, varying from 9 inches to 11 inches, 
are borne on perfectly stiff stems. 
Roots, $2.50; Plants, $1.25 
CAROLYN THILL (McAvoy-Fisher & Masson). 
Color difficult to describe— 
due to the fact that the whole flower seems to have 
a rose glow emanating from its depths not seen in 
petals when plucked separately from the center. 
Chamois-rose is the nearest to a color definition. Petals 
are extremely fine in texture like those of a rose, center 
very full, it is decidedly a new coloring in dahlias. 
Roots, $2.00; Plants, $1.00 
ANDREA ERICSON 
CHAMPOEG d.) The coloring of this dahlia is very unusual, being a blend of amber- 
■i . , ,?°* d and 1>ris ' ht rose pink combining to make a very striking flower, especially 
under artificial light. Can be grown very large. Stems and foliage fine. 
Roots, $3.00; Plants, $1.50 
CHARLES G. REED (Success). I. D. A glowing dark red with a purple tone, we find the 
..... originator's description of the color “petunia-red.” and that is ex¬ 
actly what it is, a red that blends with other reds and purples and gives a bright tone to the 
whole combination. Large exhibition flowers produced on long, stiff stems. Plants have good habit of 
growth. Medium to tall. Roots, $li00 . P ,. lnt8> 50c 
CHAUTAUQUA SUNSET (Wallace). One of the very FINEST of the 1932 intdouc- 
, tions. It is exquisitely beautiful, large, fine habit of growth, 
stiong, straight stems, plants of medium height. Color is a magnificent combination of the 
sunset colors—goid orange and peach red. Foliage dark green. We predict this will be an 
exhibition winner when it is better known. Stock at present very limited. Plants only, $5.00 
CHAUTAUQUA SALUTE (Wallace). I. D. 
and large, are 
hold the flowers facing well above the foliage; plants 
when cut.

produced in abundance. The strong stems 
are medium tall and sturdy; good keeper 
Roots, $2.00; Plants, $1.00 
CHEMAR’S EUREKA (Chemar). F. D. One of the most beautiful white dahlias, with 
a faint tinge of lavender on edge of petals, it has been our pleas¬ 
ure to grow. Flowers produced freely on long stiff stems, are of exhibition size. 
Roots, $1.50; Plants, 75c 
CORA BUTTERWORTH (Chapman). F. D. A silvery or primrose yellow decorative 
without trace of any other color from base to tip of petals.
