FORMAL DECORATIVE DAHLIAS 
CHICK (Sbertoli 83), c g e, Bloom 9x4, Bush 
4</ 2 ft. Primrose yellow with gold suffusions. Early 
crown blooms sometimes have poor centers. This 
variety should, therefore, be topped twice, eliminating 
this fault. Later blooms are large, well-formed, at¬ 
tractive and of good keeping qualities. Received 
favorable comment wherever shown.

DR. JOHN CARMAN (Dixon 85), c g e, Bloom 
10 x 5, Bush 5 ft. A dahlia you will admire, as

Tyrian rose, shaded silver. Greatly improved if 
grown in partial shade, as this softens the coloring.

ities suitable for landscape work, and a good keeper 
when cut. Roots, .50; Plants, .50

GRAF ZEPPELIN (Nolet 85), c g e, Bloom 8x4,

Blooms keep well for cutting and exhibiting.

TREASURE ISLAND (Dahliadel 86), c g e, Bloom 
10 x 5, Bush 5 ft. One of our brightest autumn 
shade dahlias. Color, bright apricot with gold and 
rose suffusion and shadings. Bush growth is strong, 
branches readily from the ground, giving four-foot 
stems. It has been a wonderful success wherever 
grown, especially where most varieties fail in a dry 
season this variety withstands all tests. Disbud for 
first eight blooms according to Drawing Y, for the 
balance of the season according to Drawing X. This 
will bring the bush up to about five feet and the side 
branches will come to about the same height. This 
dahlia is becoming more popular each year and is a 
real winner on the exhibition table. Very desirable 
when not disbudded for a mass of color in landscape 
work. Roots, .75; Plants, .50 
W. H. T. (McCarrol-Schling 85), g e, Bloom 10 x 
5, Bush 6 ft. This pleasing variety is a shade not 
common in big dahlias, rich old rose or begonia rose 
with mauve shadings on the reverse of petals. It is 
a tall robust grower with strong stems. Petals are 
thick and of great substance, opening back to the 
stem, which is a very desirable feature in a dahlia 
of this type. Roots, .75; Plants, .50
