of any white of this type we have ever grown. The bush is a strong grower, attain¬ 
ing to a height of 7-8 feet, and is exceedingly prolific of large blooms, which are sup¬ 
ported on long, straight stems, and are held high above the foliage. Flowers can be

BALL DAHLIAS

color is a clear lavender-pink, flowers 4-6 inches in diameter, perfect centers, and with

exceedingly prolific of bloom. If well grown, it is practically unbeatable as an exhibi¬ 
tion dahlia of this type.

GOLD MEDAL —This is an old dahlia, but to our mind is one of the most beautiful variet¬ 
ies ever introduced, regardless of type. It is a perfect ball, 2V> to 3 inches in diameter, 
and the color combination of yellow and red is so harmoniously blended, that it would 
be almost impossible to produce a more exquisite flower. Plant is of rather dwarf 
habit, but is very prolific of bloom in the late season, and it is exceedingly fine for table 
and house decoration. Every one likes this exquisite flower. 
Divisions, each 50 cents 
POM POM DAHLIAS 
JILL —Soft yellow, suffused and tipped carmine, Pom. Won first seedling class Camden, 
1933. A. bright colorful variety with blooms small and uniform. Bush dwarf for 
landscape effect altho the stems are plenty long for cutting for arrangements. Long 
blooming period.

LITTLE NORMAN —One of the best poms we have ever grown. Its exquisite color of flesh 
pink, slightly tinted lavender, habit of dwarf, compact growth, floriferousness; small 
size of bloom, which seldom exceed one and one-fourth inches in diameter, good keep¬ 
ing qualities when cut, entitles it to be classed as one of the very best for exhibition 
and decorative purposes. We have grown a great many Poms, and seen many more, 
but very few varieties exceed this little Pom for real beauty and value for exhibition 
and general decorative purposes. 
Roots, each $1.00

beauty. Free bloomer, good stems.
