KITTY MAC—Informal Decorative 
(Kemp) 1936 
“This is a splendid addition to the purple class, and I be¬ 
lieve the best-formed dahlia in this class. It is a tall 
growing bush with giant blooms of a bright purple shad¬ 
ing towards petunia-violet. It is a rich, very pleasing 
color. A vase of this at the New York show was as good 
as anything in the show, in so far as quality of blooms 
was concerned.” Mr. Hart’s description of this dahlia in 
his Honor Roll of 1935. Plants only, $5.00 
LA REINA—Formal Decorative 
Bloom 10 x 6, Bush 4*4 ft. 
A large clear golden buff on strong long stems. A beauti¬ 
ful bloom and strong grower. To our knowledge the 
nearest bloom in type and color to La Reina is Rose 
Fallon, however, La Reina is a much better bloom, being 
deeper and of a more loose petalage type. 
Roots, $1.00; Plants, 50c 
LITTLE NEMO—Miniature, Formal Decorative 
(Groll) 1935, Bloom 3 x 114, Bush 3 ft. 
This red and white bi-color proved very attractive for 
basket and vase work. A real florist’s dahlia. Good 
grower and bloomer. 
Plants only, 50c 
LEMONIA—Semi Cactus 
(Bruidegon) 
By far the best semi cactus to arrive from Holland. Color, 
a brilliant clear lemon yellow that is very striking in ef¬ 
fect and attracts away across the garden. Blooms are 
massive and of great depth and are held high on strong 
stems facing sideways. A vigorous grower. A good cut 
flower. This dahlia was a great winner during the last 
season Plants only, $2.50 
LORD OF AUTUMN—Informal Decorative 
(Almy—88) 1934, Bloom 12 x 6, Bush 514 ft. 
Many consider this dahlia to be one of the greatest ever 
produced. It was a sensation wherever grown or shown. 
Color is a rich golden yellow. Petals are long and have a 
graceful twist near the tips, the outer petals rolling 
back near the stem, giving the gigantic bloom enormous 
depth. Stems are strong and hold the blooms well. Plant 
is a vigouous grower and of wide-spreading habit. A 
plant of this variety in bloom is spectacular. In the 
New York Botanical Gardens popularity contest it won 
second. On the Honor Roll. 
Plants only, $2.00 
LOUISE BATES—Semi Cactus 
(Cordes-Eastman—79) 1934, Bloom 10 x 6, Bush 5 ft. 
The color of this odd cactus dalhia is a mallow pink with 
dark phlox purple at the center. We grew our plants 
to six canes and had beautiful 10 inch blooms. Stems 
were long and straight and of healthy growth. Blooms 
facing. The formation is very odd as the petals are 
wide and twist slightly, making an attractive bloom for 
the show room. Received Certificate of Merit at Storrs 
in 1933 and has created much comment wherever shown. 
An Honor Roll dahlia. Plants only, $1.50
