CACTUS DAHLIAS 
AMERICAN TRIUMPH (Nuneviller 84), g e, Bloom 8 x 4, 
Bush 5 ft. Color, oriental or bright, clear red. Blooms, with 
high full centers, are held on long, straight stems. Petals are 
decidedly incurved when flower is fully developed. A good garden 
and exhibition flower, as it is an exceptionally good keeper. Sus¬ 
ceptible to thrip and leaf-hopper injury, but is well worth your 
effort when sprayed or dusted. .50 
BALLET GIRL (Boston 78), g e, Bloom 8 x 3(4, Bush 4(4 ft. 
Beautiful flowers of immense size. Color, orange, tipped white. 
Some flowers pure orange, with other variations on same bush. 
Early and free bloomer. .50 
CONSERVATRIX (Bruidegom 84). cge, Bloom 8 x 3/ 2f Bush 
4(4 ft. One of the most artistic of the incurved Cactus dahlias. 
Stems long and erect. Keeps as well when cut as the best of the 
decoratives. An early, free bloomer of good size and beautiful 
form. Color, bright geranium red. Bush and iolic'ge very satis¬ 
factory, but not a heavy root maker. Plants, .50 
FRAU IDA MANSFIELD (Schone 88), cge, Bloom 7 x 4, 
Bush 4',2 ft. One of the most striking and admired dahlias in our 
Trial Gardens. Color is clear, pale lemon. The re volute petals 
are cleft giving it the effect of having double the number of nor¬ 
mal petals and making a very full and attractive flower. An early 
and profuse bloomer and a variety we heartily recommend. 
Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50 
F. W. FELLOWS (Stredwick 80), g e, Bloom 8 x 3/ 2 , Bush 
5/2 ft. Still a favorite on the exhibition table. Flowers are of 
an ideal Cactus form. Color, lively orange scarlet. 
Roots, .75; Plants, 50 
HOLLYWOOD (Vincent 82), g, Bloom 6x2, Bush 4|/ 2 ft, A 
French mauve that is appealing and beautiful for arrangements. 
We heard many favorable comments on this strong, vigorous 
grower with good stems. A favorite in the garden. .50 
KAREOL (Carlee 84), g e, Bloom 6 x 2/ 2 , Bush 4 ft. Incurved 
Cactus dahlias on long, erect stems are rare. This variety not 
only qualifies as to stem but is decidedly incurved and a pleasing 
combination of maize yellow suffused and tipped carmine, shaded 
old rose. Comes into bloom very early. 
Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50 
KROON JEWEL (80), Bloom 6x3, Bush 5 ft. Color, rich 
golden bronze. An early and free bloomer, with the beautifully 
formed flowers held well above the foliage on long, slender, stiff 
stems. Fine for garden and cutting, and useful for arrangements.

LILAC GLORY (Ballego 85), cge, Bloom 6 x 2(4, Bush 4(4 
ft. One of the prettiest Cactus dahlias we know of. Color, soft 
violet rose with silver shadings. Stems are slender but strong and 
erect, making it ideal for baskets and arrangements. Blooms early 
and continuously. The more you cut the more it produces. 
Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
NEUER GRIFF (83), cge, Bloom 5 x 2(4, Bush 4(4 ft. This 
variety comes close to being a miniature if grown rather poor and 
not disbudded. Stems are stiff, bush robust and produces just 
dozens of blooms. A fine little dahlia of violet rose shaded mauve. 
Roots, $1.00; Plants, .50 
SPORT (Dahliadel 83), g e, Bloom 8 x 3(4, Bush 5(4 ft- Al¬ 
though a sport of F. W. Fellows with all its merits, it has never 
reverted to its parent. Deep buttercup yellow with buff shadings 
at center. Fine for exhibition, and a favorite in the garden.
