NEW INTRODUCTIONS OF 1923 
Another year has still further demonstrated the superior merits of these new varieties. The great demand 
the past year so depleted our stock of some that we have been unable to reduce the price as we wished to do; 
but considering the quality, our prices are very reasonable. 
DREAM GIRL Decorative. An exquisite new variety with an entirely new color combination that 
has attracted the greatest attention. Pale lemon yellow at base of petal, shading to rosy 
red at tips; reflex pale pink and white. The flowers are of good size, of beautiful, regular form and borne well 
above foliage on straight stiff stems. A fine dwarf branching grower, 3 to 4 feet. One of the loveliest of all 
dahlias and entirely distinct. An acquisition. Roots $5.00 each; plants $2.50.

erect on cane stiff stems. The color is the richest, glowing red. It is the finest

sturdy with luxuriant dark glossy green foliage. The flowers are very full to the center, up until frost. 4 ft. 
Roots $5.00; plants $2.50.
