OUR ORIGINATION 
PRIDE OF AMERICA 
Semi-Cactus. Primrose yellow with pink on reverse of petals. The 
nearest to a 100% dahlia that I have had the pleasure of seeing. I 
predict it will be used as the standard in the semi-cactus classes for years 
to come. The truest S. C. type with high full centers and the petals folding 
back to the stem, making it nearly globe shape. The huge flowers are 
displayed beautifully on perfect stems. An Honor Roll Dahlia. 
Roots, $15.00; Plants, $7.50; Rooted Cuttings, $5.00. 
WHAT OTHER AUTHORITIES SAY OF 
PRIDE OF AMERICA 
Mrs. Warren Maytrott, Dahliadel Nurseries: “The stem and formation 
is about perfect. Pride of America is just the type dahlia we need.” 
Mr. J. W. Johnston, House Beautiful: “If perfection counts, Pride of 
America will go places.” 
Mr. D. W. Hart, The Flower Grower: “Pride of America is one of 
the best, if not the best, of its type in existence. It will be extremely 
difficult to defeat.” 
No show garden will be complete without this variety
