MISS OAKLAND (Oakleigh Gardens)—See Cover 
picture. The champion white dahlia — champion 
in all respects—Perfect flowers, wonderful 
keeper, and has proven its value from coast to 
coast. We had the pleasure of growing this 
champion in 1935, and what a pleasure it was. 
Twice a winner of Certificate of Merit at East 
Lansing and at Storrs; also an Award of Honor 
at Georgia Dahlia Society. On most of the 
Honor Rolls this season. The perfect formal 
blooms are from 5 to 7 inches grown naturally 
on wonderful long stiff stems. The bush is 
very healthy and with us the insects left it en¬ 
tirely alone. This dahlia will be grown for 
either cut fiowers or exhibition. Strong divi¬ 
sions, $10.00 Net. Plants .$5.00

BAER NS, S.C. (Ballego)—This is without doubt 
one of the best European novelties of last season. 
Winner of the Silver Challenge Cup of the 
Dutch Dahlia Society. The color is a striking 
carmine rose throughout the entire flower. The 
petals are pointed and the stems hold the 
blooms at a fine angle. Bush about four feet tall 
and well branching. The blooms when cut last 
a long time. A real novelty.$2.00 
BALLEGO'S SURPRISE, S.C. (Ballego)—With us 
this was the most beautiful of all white dahlias. 
The formation is not unlike the now very popu¬ 
lar Frau O. Bracht, of which it is a seedling. 
The blooms are a trifle larger than the parent, 
and stems a little better. One of the most pro¬ 
lific bloomers in our garden, and with fine keep¬ 
ing qualities. This will meet with instant favor..$2.00 
You will find no group of flower lovers who extol 
the grandeur of flowers with such reckless abandon as 
those who raise dahlias, and well they may, for where 
can you find a better flower?
