WE GROW THE BEST AND DISCARD THE REST 
COMMODORE 
COMMODORE (I nf. Dec.) “Scott”—We have grown this gigantic flower to 14 inches 
across and believe that it can be grown even larger. It is one of the few very real 
large varieties that is a very prolific bloomer, it is nothing unusual to see six or eight 
blooms each averaging 10 inches and over and with as many others in bud showing 
color on the one plant at the same time. Color a rick lemon yellow, overcast with a 
golden sheen, the blossoms are held facing at a forty'five degree angle, on strong, 
canedike stems, well above the foliage of the strong, stocky and wide'spreading bush, 
that averages about 4 feet in height. We believe we have the largest and finest stock 
of this variety that can be procured anywhere owing to the exceptional large stock 
of it, and the fact that it is an abundant root maker, we are letting it go at.

COQUETTE (Inf. Dec.) “F. & M.”—A very spectacular dahlia of Spanish coloring, 
bright red, blending with gold. The petals twist and curl in a most enhancing manner, 
showing the golden reflex, the flowers are of good size and are held erect at forty'five 
degree angle, well above the foliage on good strong canedike stems, an early and 
prolific bloomer. The plant which averages four to five feet is a good vigorous 
grower, with heavy insect'resistant foliage. Roots, 50c 
*CORALLINA (Semi. Cac.) “Bruidegom”—Here is a dahlia that is very hard to describe, 
it is a new one from Holland, where it created a sensation. The nearest we can come 
to its coloring is that it is a stone red, shading to gold at base of petals, the gold 
being more pronounced in the center of the flower, the petals are long and whirl 
and twist in a most enhancing manner, showing the contrasting colors. The blooms 
which are large are held facing sideways on good long stems, well above the medium 
to tall growing plants, with stems as stiff as ram rods. This dahlia was greatly ad' 
mired at our gardens, and many orders were received for it, it is a strong robust 
grower, as well as a free and incessant bloomer. Roots, #7.50 Plants, #3.75
