SEMI-CACTUS 
AIKO (Dahliadel 85), g e, Bloom 10 x V/ 2 , Bush 
4i/ 2 ft. This dahlia has been given the Japanese 
name “Aiko” (pronounced Tko), as its color and 
form suggest the Orient. One of the most spectac¬ 
ular dahlias we have ever introduced. It is large 
and striking in color. Cardinal or deep carmine, 
with a silver reverse showing at the center and tips, 
making it unusual. Bushes are strong, open growers. 
Reacts wonderfully well in heavy soil. This dahlia 
occasionally throws a flower off-form, which is easily 
forgotten in comparison to the number of perfect 
blooms, and we believe it will give you the satisfac¬ 
tion it has given us. As additional reports of the 
good behavior of this dahlia come in to us from all 
over the country, we find it is a much greater dahlia 
than we realized when it was introduced. 
Roots, $2.00; Plants, $1.00 
GOOD WILL (Nuneviller 84), g e, Bloom 10 x 5, 
Bush 4J/2 ft. Large attractive blooms of violet rose 
with bright rose shadings. The center is shaded 
sulphury yellow. A tall open growing variety with 
strong, slender stems. This dahlia was not shown 
much as stock is still scarce, but it should become 
very popular in the garden and on the exhibition 
table for its size and dainty coloring. 
Roots, $5.00; Plants, $2.50

RUDY VALLEE (Broomall-Success 85), g e, Bloom 
11x6, Bush 5 ft. One of the finest Semi-Cactus 
dahlias of recent introduction. It has size, beauty, 
keeping qualities and is very attractive. Flowers 
are full-centered and are held well above the clean- 
cut foliage, on long, straight stems. Growth vigor¬ 
ous. A dahlia that you should have. A. D. S. Cert.
