DAHLIAMUM—S. C. Clear bright yellow. A dahlia that has a chrysanthemum-like appearance, 
hence its name. While we have from time to time received good reports on this variety, we 
feel it is a dahlia that should be better known in fairness to its merits. It has been called 
by florists the perfect dahlia because it combines size and beauty with the lasting qualities 
necessary for their purpose. The price is now within the reach of all ..$1.00 
DOLOROSA—I. D. Deep bluish lavender. The blue is just a little more pronounced than has ap¬ 
peared heretofore. Perhaps it is a step toward a real blue, if that much heralded specimen 
ever comes. At any rate, this is a very pleasing variety, with big full flowers held upright 
on long hard stems. The petals are somewhat pointed, the center is tight and holds well, the 
stems are long-jointed and so are not burdened with leaves .$2.00 
DOMINO—F. D. Deep unshaded maroon. A very dark decorative that does not fade or burn in 
the sunshine. It is about a 10-inch dahlia, very formal in type, and compactly built of many 
rows of broad, flat petals. It will start to bloom early, produce freely all season, and the 
well-branched stalks of medium height are very straight and strong. To those who are in¬ 
terested in a beautiful and useful new dark dahlia, we can cheerfully recommend this one

DONNA CALIFORNIA—I. D. Deep rose pink suffused with lavender. This probably is still the 
largest dahlia in this color. 12-inch blooms are produced without effort through a long 
period. The flower is not particularly heavy considering its great size, as its even petal 
formation is loosely arranged rather than solid. The stems are very strong and very long.

FAIR ELAINE—S. C. Delicate old rose. An extra good variety with long evenly rolled incurved 
petals. For true beauty it is hard to surpass and the quantity of good flowers produced is 
the greatest we have seen; not that it is one of those varieties that requires a lot of disbud¬ 
ding, for it is quite the opposite, but the numerous branches all produce good flowers until 
the very end of the season. We have been informed from several sources of the very ex¬ 
cellent lasting qualities of this flower when cut. 1929 Roll of Honor dahlia .$1.00 
FASCINATOR—F. D. Salmon, orange and gold. These colors are all in bright tones and combine 
to produce a flower of entrancing beauty. It fascinates you and the name belongs to it ex¬ 
actly. First crop flowers will be 11 or 12 inches in diameter, regularly formed with full 
deep centers, and held up gracefully on long, strong stems. Later flowers are not so large 
but are in great profusion, continuing to charm with their beauty into the late fall.$5.00 
FULL MOON—F. D. Canary yel¬ 
low. Here is a variety that 
can be truthfully called a 
superlative dahlia. The large 
distinctive blooms easily 
measuring 12 inches across, 
are regularly formed of very 
broad flat petals that termi¬ 
nate in a perfectly full and 
artistic center. The thickness 
and strength of the stems 
are particularly noticeable 
and the flowers are always 
upright, never facing the 
least bit to the side. We have 
never seen a variety more 
consistent, every flower be¬ 
ing massive in size and per¬ 
fectly formed, and the foli¬ 
age is always clean and 
bright. In its first year this 
dahlia made a good start in 
the East, winning the Gold 
Medal of the Dahlia Society 
of California as the best dahlia of California origin, and was also the largest dahlia in the 
show, at Boston. It has since won many prizes as Best Yellow, and in some cases as Best 
Bloom in the show, some customers stating they have grown 13 and even 14 inch flowers 
without any special effort. It was among the winners at the World’s Fair this year. Roll of
