LOMBARD’S DAHLIA GARDENS 
Treasure Island, F. D.—One of the brightest autumn 
shade Dahlias we have seen. Color, bright apricot 
with gold and rose suffusion and shadings. Bush 
growth is strong, branches readily from the ground 
giving 5-foot stems .50 
Thos. A. Edison, F. D.—This gorgeous Dahlia, select¬ 
ed and named by permission of the famous electri¬ 
cal wizard, has had its good share of winnings the 
past season in the West as well as in the East. In 
the garden it is impressive with its staghorn petal 
formation, the large, dark green, insect-resistant 
foliage, cane-stiff stems, thrifty growth, and great¬ 
est of all, that color, found in no other Dahlia, 
which is as hard to describe as to reproduce in col¬ 
or. It may be described as a royal purple.50 
Virginia Rae, F. D.—A very pretty Formal Decora¬ 
tive of a rich buff orange shade, freely produces 
large blooms. * Good habit of growth, plants medi¬ 
um tall. Stems straight and stiff .30 
Valentino, F. D.—A Dahlia, attractive in formation 
which blooms prolifically on good stems and re¬ 
mains true to type throughout the season. The 
bush is an upright grower. Color, true salmon pink 
shading to cream at center.50 
William H. Hogan, F. D.—Color, garnet red with 
white tips running down the center of the petals; 
every petal comes true to color. A prize winner 
and Roll of Honor Dahlia, and one of the best fancy 
Dahlias on the market. The habits of the plant are 
perfect .38
