are held at a fortyTve degree angle on good, strong, sturdy stems, well above the 
foliage of the medium to tall growing bush, which is strong and thrifty in growth,

coloring, but its formation. Plants only, #1.50

SONNY BOY (Inf. Dec.) “Nunneviller”—This giant dahlia is of old rose, slightly 
striped and tinged old gold, and attains great size in the open field, and we can 
highly recommend it as a very hardy variety. The huge blooms, which are also 
of great depth, are held facing sideways on long sturdy stems, well out of and 
above the bush, with large, heavy, leathery, insecPresistant foliage. This variety 
never fails to attract, and has been a consistent winner the past season, and will 
continue to win for some time to come. The plant is a strong thrifty one; don’t 
fail to grow this one if you want your neighbors to see a real HE dahlia. Height

SPOTLIGHT (Inf. Dec.) “Hulin”—A most delighful color, sulphur yellow, shading 
lighter near the tips, and nearly white on the reverse, the petals curl in a most 
pleasing and fascinating manner, the blooms are full and very large, with air-tight 
centers at all times of the season, and never sheds a petal, the same staying on the 
flower until it will dry up. The blooms are held at a fortyTve degree angle, on 
stems that are perfectly straight and never bend, and are held majestically high and 
above the large, heavy, insecPresistant foliage. This variety was very much ad' 
mired in the gardens of the N. Y. Botanical Gardens the past season and was 
way up next to the winner in the voting for the most popular dahlia in the gar' 
dens. A strong robust grower, height about five feet. Roots, #5.00
