ordinary held culture, which is =

be expected in any ordinary gar- § 
den. 
The flowers are 8 inches or more in 
diameter borne on long, strong, erect 
stems, firmly set at right angles close to 
the stems. This makes these superbly 
beautiful flowers invaluable for decorative 
purposes when cut. or for age and display 
in the garden. The color is an unusually 
soft and pleasing shade of orange-bull, 
slightly tinged with Neyron rose. A rare 
Autumn shade that will be in great de¬ 
mand. The flowers are full to the center 
as perfect flowers should be. The petals 
are firm and in every way it is a perfect 
flower. It is a splendid shipping and a long 
keeping Dahlia when the flowers are cut. 
None better for commercial use. 
l’rof. Geo. W. Fraser, Connecticut Agri¬ 
cultural College, in charge of the Dahlia 
Trial Grounds, says: “Its growing, keeping 
and shipping qualities are excellent. Grow¬ 
ers will find its habit, color, etc., something 
that has been greatly needed.”
