CURTIS DAHLIAS 
Classic (I. D.) 1935- 
First shown at Brooklyn and was the best novelty in that 
show. Not since the introduction of Margaret Woodrow in 
1922 has such a distinctive pastel shade been shown. The 
color is warm, very definite but very light pink, almost a 
flesh color. Unlike pastel shades it is attractive in full 
sunlight and under artificial light as well. An outstanding 
grower. On honor roll. PLANT, $5.00 
Chautauqua Sunset (F. D.) 1934— 
Most pleasing in color as it is a wonderful blending of sun¬ 
set colors gold, shaded old rose and coral. A great ex¬ 
hibition dahlia. Growing habits are excellent with strong, 
straight stems and dark green foliage. On honor roll last 
year. PLANT, $2.50 
Cadet (S. C.) 1934-

Charlie Chaplin (I. D.) 1935— 
One of the largest dahlias of the year and possessed of

er. On honor roll. PLANTS, $5.00
