ADDA PATTERSON (Kemp 81). g e, Bloom 8 x

CARLA (Dahliadel 85), 1934, c g e, Bloom 4'/ 2 x 
2, Bush 4 ft. Color is buff, heavily shaded old rose 
and suffused violet rose, a rich contrast to the dark 
green foliage. The bush growth is compact, making 
a beautiful background for the perfectly formed 
Semi-Cactus with especially full centers. Blooms 
seem to jet out all over the plant. Ideal in the 
garden and for arrangements. A great favorite. 
This dahlia will grow 5 to 6 inches if disbudded. 
Roots, $1.50; Plants, .75 
FRAU O. BRACHT (Berger 86), c g e, Bloom 9 
x 4'/ 2 , Bush 5 ft. This fine dahlia has made a host 
of friends in this country. It is a wonderful cut flower 
as well as a great prize winner, keeping well and 
holding blooms on fine stems. A cleancut, straight- 
petaled Semi-Cactus, at least it is classified as such, 
although at times the majority of petals revolute for 
more than half their length and allow it to qualify 
as a Cactus. Color, a clear, light primrose yellow. 
A. D. S. Cert., 1929. It is just about the prettiest 
yellow Cactus or Semi-Cactus dahlia you can wish 
for. Roots, $1.50; Plants, .75 
PAUL PFITZER (Berger S6), c g e, Bloom 8x4, 
Bush 4 ft. A German novelty that has won a name 
for itself in arrangement classes, baskets, and for 
general florists’ use. It is a pleasing combination of 
sulphur yellow and lilac rose that blends wonderfully 
well with Frau O. Braeht, and a basket of these two 
varieties is about the loveliest one could ask for. 
Strong, vigorous plants with dark foliage and excel¬ 
lent stems. x\ wonderful cut flower. 
Roots, $2 50; Plants, $1.25 
DAHLIA SOCIETY OF 
NEW JERSEY 
Our State Society co-operated with the Bergen 
County Gardeners' Society in North Jersey and The 
Camden Dahlia Society in South Jersey in two very 
creditable Fall Shows. 
The most important change made by this Society 
has been to adopt the American Dahlia Society Bul¬ 
letin for its official publication and each member will 
receive the A. D. S. Bulletin starting with February. 
This will not only give our members national news but 
place New Jersey before the rest of the country. 
Miss Virginia Stout, our Membership Chairman, of 
Short Hills, N. J., will be glad to give you any further 
information. Send dues of $2.00 to the Treasurer, 
Mrs. F. S. Fisher, 121 Abernethy Drive, Trenton, New 
Jersey.
