The dahlias of yesterday were marvelous, dahlias of today these have surpassed, 
with the co-operation of the growers, the progress shall last. 
AMERICAN TRIUMPH (St. C.)—This one is considered the best true cactus 
ever produced. The brightest shade of pure Oriental red, without a trace 
of any other color. The blooms are large, deep, and of good substance, and 
are held erect on long, strong, wiry stems. A fine cut or exhibition flower. 
Tubers, $1.00 
ASBURY PARK (F. D.)—A marvelous autumn colored flower that has won 
prizes wherever shown. A bright strawberry red, flushed with salmon and 
tinted with old gold toward the tip of petals. Full centered with gracefully 
arranged petals. The huge blooms are held erect, well above the strong, 
robust growing bush. Tubers, $1.00 
BAGDAD (I. D.)—An immense flower of flaming scarlet, borne well above the 
tall bush on very strong stiff stems. An ideal growing plant that I can 
highly recommend for those who want a rich bright color in their garden or 
for the exhibition table where it seldom fails to win a prize. Tubers, $1.00 
BERTHA FRITZEL (F. D.)—A vivid glowing scarlet red, the plant which grows 
to about four feet in height, and very robust, and wide spreading, is always 
loaded with blooms, which are held erect on cane-like stems. The blooms 
average about 7 inches across and four inches deep, and makes a beautiful 
sight in any garden. Tubers, $1.00 
BETTY COLTER (I. D.)—A light salmon red throughout, shading to old rose 
' at the base, of the long rolled petals, the blooms are of good size and form, 
and are held erect on the best of stems. An early free and continuous 
bloomer. Tubers, $2.50 
CHAMPOEG (F. D.)—This very beautiful dahlia is so unusual in its color, that 
it is without a competitor. Its combination of colors are waxy canary yellow 
at the center, shading to salmon pink, the pink deepens as the weather be¬ 
comes cooler, the back of petals are a pale yellow, overcast with a veil of 
white, even the unfolding bud is beautiful, and has more fragrance than 
any other dahlia I know of. This is particularly noticed in the early morning. 
The blooms which can easily be grown to 10 inches, are held well above the 
plant on strong, sturdy stems. A truly marvelous dahlia. Tubers, $2.00 
CAROLYN THILL (I. D.)—A very impressive Dahlia and a difficult one to 
describe, but a new shade halfway between true salmon and buff. It is 
an extremely beautiful dahlia and a fine, clean grower. It is right on the 
border line between Formal and Informal Decorative. The flowers are 
large', very deep and of fine texture. Tubers, $2.00 
CHARLES G. REED (F. D.)—A rather unusual dahlia in regard to color which 
is Burgundy with a lighter reverse, or might be described as a purple or 
petunia red. The blooms which are large and composed of broad petals 
which always show a full center, and are held erect on the best of stems, 
is an early, free and prolific bloomer. Tubers, $2.00 
CHATTAQUA SALUTE (F. D.)—This dahlia is by far the purest white on any 
dahlia known to date. It is whiter than snow and a prolific bloomer. The 
flowers which average between 7 and 8 inches across, literally cover the 
strong growing bush with blooms, giving it the effect of a huge bouquet. 
A sight never to be forgotten. Tubers, $1.00 
CHEMARS EUREKA (F. D.)—White, with a faint light lavender cast near the 
center of the flower. A winner in the white class wherever shown. A very 
prolific bloomer, and a dahlia of rare beauty, with perfect stems, and com¬ 
bining all of the habits that go to make a perfect dahlia. Tubers, $1.00

bronze shading on reverse. A giant flower, which grows on cane-like stem,
