FIREBALL,our *937 introduction,won five blue ribbons and the 
Ruscher Memorial Cup,at the 1936 shows. It was awarded a Certificate 
of Merit at East Lansing,and is an Honor Roll dahlia. 
Fireball is a formal decorative,color a brilliant scarlet. It is 
a one tone color that does not burn in the sun. The foliage is extra 
heavy and absolutely insect resistant. It is a wonderful keeper when 
cut,outlasting many standard cut flower varieties. We predict that 
this flower will be very useful in basket arrangement and as a cut 
flower,
