ELITE SPORT Bloom 9x5, Bush 4^/4 ft. A posi¬ 
tive sport of Elite Glory, inheriting: such good 
qualities as rugged growth with insect-resist¬ 
ant foliage, strong stems, and the bloom an 
exact counterpart, except in color, which is a 
soft buff, striped and speckled crimson. This 
unique coloring does not fade or burn in the 
sun. Sports usually revert to the original 
variety to a more or less degree. True to tra¬ 
dition, this sport occasionally throws a solid 
red bloom with the rest of the bush blooming 
as described above .50

FOREST FIRE An informal decorative of an un¬ 
usually artistic form. Color lemon yel¬ 
low at base of petals, heavily tipped rich scar¬ 
let and enhanced with yellow petaloids, this is 
the description from the color charts, but is 
real beauty of its distinctiveness cannot be so 
described. Its name “Forest Fire” describes 
just what it looks like, color ranging from 
pale yellow through golden to a dash of bril¬ 
liant red, just as the flames rise and fall and 
show all these colors. Not a bi-colored dahlia 
but a dahlia that arrests the attention imme¬ 
diately whether in the field or the show room. 
Plant is sturdy and insect resisting, stems 
straight and strong. Received certificate of 
merit both at Storrs, Conn., and Lansing, 
Michigan, 1934 . 1.00
