If you like to have your garden looking beautiful during the summer and fall, 
you will have to give them some thought now. 
FORT WASHINGTON (F. D.)—The bushes as well as the flowers of this old 
reliable variety are giants. The color of blooms are a mahogany red, which 
will not fade, and are held erect on long cane-like stems. It is a free 
bloomer and robust grower, and one that will always be in popular demand. 
Tubers, $.75 
FRANCES A. JOHNSON (F. D.)-—Rose pink, shading to a deeper shade near 
the outer edge of petals. Blooms are large and held erect on the best of 
cane-like stems, well above the prolific blooming bush. A dahlia of great 
beauty and for which there was a big demand. Tubers, SI.50 
FRAU O BRACHT (St. C.)—A clear light primrose yellow that grows on top 
of an exceptionally strong, long, stiff and almost leafless stem, holding the 
huge blooms proudly above the robust growing bush. Winner of many 
prizes and will continue to win in this class and color. One that is hard 
to beat. Tubers, $1.50 
FRAIZIER (F. D.)—A glowing rich oriental red, shading to yellow at the base 
and at the tips, giving the flower a very odd and artistic appearance that 
attracts the attention of all who saw it at my gardens the past season. 
A free and prolific bloomer with good insect resistant foliage. Blooms are 
held erect well above the robust growing plant. Tubers, $1.00 
FRED SPRINGER (F. D.)-—Here is a new dahlia and one that will be in great 
demand as a border dahlia. It is a dwarf grower, growing to a height of 
two feet with distinct fine cut foliage with large scarlet red flowers, with 
short stems that cover the bush and stay on the plant a long time, giving 
the plant the appearance of a rose bush with gigantic roses. None better 
for a border or as a hedge. Tubers, $1.00 
GERALDINE FAITH (I. D.)—The color of this beautiful dahlia is hard to 
describe. Somewhat resembling Harry Mayer. Tyrian Rose, the entire 
flower is varigated with rose pink reverse, 10 in. flower on cane-like stem. 
Tubers, $3.50 
GIRL OF HILLCREST (I. D.)—This excellent dahlia is classified as an in¬ 
formal decorative, but at times it is almost a semi-cactus. The flowers are 
artistic and well formed, the color of which is a bright apricot buff, and 
also described by others as a Mikado orange. Suffice to say that the blooms 
are not only large but have great depth and that they are held high aloft. 
£The strong bush which is not only an early but also a very prolific bloomer. 
This dahlia has won many prizes and will continue to do so for some time 
to come. Tubers, $2 00 
GOOD WILL (C.)—An immense straight cactus, shell pink shading to a cream 
at the center, on a stiff stem. The bloom is well formed. A very unusual 
flower. Tubers, $5.00
