LAWRENCE TIBBETT—Eastern and Western Honor 
Roll. Formal-decorative. This immense 10 to 14 inch Dahlia 
of fine form and beautiful coloring was selected by the 
World Renowned Singer, personally, to bear his name. The 
color is a warm, glowing, 
clear peach pink. The large 
flowers are held erect on 
strong, straight stems, o n 
tall bushes; prolific bloom¬ 
ers, having excellent keep¬ 
ing qualities. Blooms of it 
have been taken home after 
exhiibting it two days, and 
they kept perfectly three 
or more days longer. It is 
one of the few Dahlias 
that may be cut before ma¬ 
tured, and that will open 
perfectly in water and last 
for a week or longer. Have 
had fine reports of it from 
all over the country. One 
grower said: “It was very 
fine in every way, and at¬ 
tracted lots of attention, 
could b e seen from the 
highway; it went up nearly 
seven feet and every stalk 
perfectly straight. The col¬ 
or was quite unsual and it 
was well liked by all. ' 
Roots only—$10.00.

* ALICE MEUSSDORFFER—I. D. This large refined 
and exquisitely beautiful Dahlia is universally admired in the 
East as well as the West. Dr. Howe of the Botanical Gar¬ 
dens, New York, wrote me of its great beauty and how 
universally it was admired... The color is a clear pinkish or¬ 
chid, with a velvety texture; flowers often measure 10 inches 
and over, and are held perfectly erect on a long wiry, 
straight stem; very attractive lacelike but leathery foliage, a 
prolific bloomer. The masses of blooms on the tall bushes 
are most attractive in the garden. Roots—-$4.50.
