DAHLIADEL NURSERIES 
DAHLIADEL RECOMMENDATIONS 
of Large Flowering Dahlias 
In response to many requests to recommend varie¬ 
ties for different sections and for color classes, we 
have prepared the following tabulation. The varieties 
are listed under color classes that we would recom¬ 
mend for exhibiting. The letters "N M S" give you an 
idea of the varieties that will come into bloom early 
for the North, stand dry winds in the Middle West, 
and stand up under the intense sunshine of the South. 
All varieties, including those without letter recom¬ 
mendations, can be grown successfully in New Jersey 
and in sections with similar growing conditions. The 
letters "c e" will enable you at a glance to select 
varieties for cutting or for the exhibition table. All the 
varieties we grow are useful for the garden or land¬ 
scape in one way or another. 
c e—As explained on page I, par. 4. 
N—Northern Section of U. S. and Canada with a 
rather short growing season of 90 to 120 days. 
M—Middle West and sections where summers are 
hot and dry. 
S—Southern Section, season long, summer long and 
hot.
