CARL SALBACH 
1935 
Gladys Champion {Champion) . P. A very large 
peony dahlia of apricot yellow, jasper red on 
reverse of petals. A profuse bloomer which 
thrives in warm climates.50c 
Golden Pacific (Gill). I. D. One of the finest 
of the gold colored dahlias. As rich a pure 
glistening gold as Paul Michael, and fully 
as large a flower. Blooms early and freely. 
Fine stem and a good keeper.$1.00 
Grace Houston (H oust on-Sail) ach 1031). I. D. 
A large decorative of pure rose pink color, 
fluffy and graceful. Stems long and wiry. 
Awarded first prize as the best pink deco¬ 
rative in Tri-State Show at Smyth County 
Fair, Virginia. Most attractive. This fine 
dahlia was grown by Mrs. Houston from Sal- 
bach seed .$1.50 
Inkyo (McWhirter). A deepest maroon—al¬ 
most black—semi-cactus. Should be in every 
garden, as it is not only full of blooms, but is 
unexcelled as a cut flower. In our tests for 
the “Best Keepers,” Inkyo outlasted all the 
rest. Has been known to keep nearly a week 
.50c 
Ivory ( Bessie Boston). F. D. A large exquis¬ 
itely beautiful broad-petaled ivory white of 
perfect form. The flower is full and deep, 
does not burn and keeps indefinitely. Fine 
stem .$1.50 
Jane Cowl (Downs). I. D. One of the few 
graceful giants. It is an immense, glisten¬ 
ing, bronzy buff and old gold, with just 
enough twist to the broad petals to make it 
beautiful. Free blooming and excellent for 
cutting and show purposes. First prize as 
best dahlia in California Flower Festival, 
1931. One of the “Best Keepers”.50c 
Jerome Kern (Veile and Mendliam). Pale 
pinkish buff, faintly suffused gold, this new 
Eastern dahlia is most attractive. Splendid 
in the East for all purposes as the centers 
come closed. Even better for general cutting 
in this part of California as the orange pollen 
center, surrounded by a twisted and curled 
ring of center petals, gives a more graceful 
effect than that of the more formal types. 
Produces a profusion of blooms and is a 
“Best Keeper.” Each.$5.00 
Jersey’s Beauty (Waite). F. D. This salmon 
pink dahlia is one of the best cut flowers 
grown; probably the most popular of all 
dahlias. One of the “Best Keepers”.50c 
Kathleen Norris (Fisher and Masson). I. D. A 
huge and beautiful light pink. Has won 
countless prizes in flower shows.75c 
Kaweah (Miss Meussdorffer 1931) . F. D. This 
tremendously large dahlia, which won first 
at the California Flower Festival (largest 
flower show in the West) in 1931 and again 
in 1932 is one of the big ones that does not 
sacrifice color or form to size. This is amply 
shown by the fact that the sixteen-inch 
giant which won first as largest flower at 
the C.F.F. also took first as the best flower 
in the show in 1932. As grown by the orig¬ 
inator, this flower grows consistently from 
fourteen to sixteen inches across with good 
depth. Best dahlia exhibited, Century of 
Progress, 1933. Color rose pink.$5.00 
TOMMY ATKINS 
Kentucky (Wiggington) . F. D. A sport of 
Jersey’s Beauty, retaining the same shape 
and keeping qualities. Light salmon orange, 
shading to grenadine pink. One of the “Best 
Keepers” .60c 
Maryland’s Orange (Maryland Gardens). I. D. 
Brilliant orange. Roll of Honor dahlia and 
winner of many prizes.$2.00 
Miss Berkeley (Salbach 1932). S. C. This 
splendid clear rich lemon yellow gives im¬ 
mense blooms held high on long wiry stems. 
The long, crispy, pointed petals are curled 
and twisted in a delightful way that gives 
the flower an airy grace. The blooms are 
full and deep and the bushes tall and filled 
with blooms. Grows naturally ten to twelve 
inches in diameter and could easily be grown 
larger if forced for show purposes.$1.50 
Mrs. Alfred B. Seal (Seal). I. D. A beautiful 
old rose decorative. The flowers are huge, 
of great depth and substance. Strong, tall 
bushes with excellent stems.75c 
Mrs. Carl Salbach (Salbach) . F. D. One of the 
most dependable of all dahlias. A sturdy, 
vigorous grower, full of blooms, and a fine 
tuber maker. The flowers, which are uni¬ 
formly symmetrical, are a beautiful orchid 
shade and are born on long stout stems. The 
bushes are stately in the garden. One of the 
“Best Keepers”.50c 
Pink Ambassador ( Von Issendorf-Salbach 
1935) S. C. Named for Ambassador, which 
it resembles in form. The color, however, is 
a beautiful saffrano pink, shading to cream 
yellow at the center of the flower. A good 
stock permits us to introduce this splendid 
dahlia at.$2.50 each 
Queen of the Garden Beautiful. F. D. An enor¬ 
mous primrose yellow decorative. Has been 
awarded numerous first prizes as the largest 
flower in the show. A fine keeper.50c
