BUCKEYE KING (Golden Rule, 1934), F. D. A very large, 
clear growing amber yellow. Stems are long, always good 
with all flowers facing. On Mr. Hart's Roll of Honor.40 
CAVALCADE, F. D. (90), LL. (Groll). A formal deco¬ 
rative of the Jersey Beauty type. Size of bloom, 7 to 
9 inches; height of bush, 5 to 6 ft. The best stemmed 
variety ever grown in our gardens. Leathery foliage. 
The color is a beautiful shade of old rose or mulberry 
pink. Every flower comes perfect, facing you. A free 
bloomer .40 
CALIFORNIA IDOL, I. D. (88), LL., 5 ft. This giant yel¬ 
low has a coast to coast record as a winner. On Hart's 
Honor Roll. Certificate at Storrs. It did well in our 
garden. The petals curl back so that it looks like a 
giant chrysanthemum. A fine grower. With Lord of 
Autumn and America's Sweetheart it gives us three 
great yellows, but I can not make up my mind as to 
which I like best. 50 
CHAMPOEG (8T), ML., 3 to 4 ff. The unusual coloring 
of Champoeg makes it an especially attractive flower. 
It is a waxy canary yellow at the center and shades 
into a salmon pink, which deepens in cool weather. 
Strong, sturdy stems hold the flowers well above the 
rough, thick foliage... 50 
CHARLIE CHAPLIN (Petria Chappaqua), 1935. A very 
large flower of deep gold shading to a bronze center. 
Will give any of the large ones a run for their money. 
CLARA CARDER (Kemp, 1936), (Dec.) One of the great¬ 
est pink decorative Dahlias we have ever grown. Its 
formation is on the border line between formal and in¬ 
formal decorative, and is in a color class by itself, it 
being a beautiful shade of clear Cyclamen pink, the only 
Dahlia we know of this color. 60 
COLONEL LEWIS (Previns, 1935), I. D. Here we have a 
winner, in a deep rose pink, reverse same color. An early 
bloomer with the best of stems and foliage. Foliage of 
deep green and crinkly petals. Very attractive. Every 
plant a good grower in 1937. 50 
CORNELIA BRYCE PINCHOT, I. D. (84), LL., 4i/ 2 ft. One 
of the richest colors; a glowing bergundy red on a 
heavy deep flower. Winner at Chicago as best seedling 
of the year 1934. Also at Bryn Mawr, it won as the 
largest and finest bloom. On the Honor Roll. 50 
CROYDON (Brand-Kemp, 1932), I. D. One of the largest 
and best new pure whites for exhibition. 10 to 12- 
inch flowers. Strong stems hold flowers well above the 
foliage. 
DADDY KEMP (Kemp, 1935), F. D. This is every inch a 
man's flower, and one of the most spectacular intro¬ 
duced in recent years. The flowers are of immense size, 
often 14 inches or over in diameter, and from five to 
seven inches deep. The color is a rich purplish red. 
Should be grown to four stems to make these strong 
enough to hold the flowers. (H. R.). 50 
DOROTHY STONE (F. Cr M. 84E), Bloom 9x4, Bush 4 ft. 
Suitable for the garden and show room, although not as 
spectacular as Kathleen Norris. It is a darker pink and 
a deeper flower. A good grower with stems long and 
erect .

cardinal red Dahlia, much admired by visitors for its 
rich color. (H. R.).. 
EDWARD T. RINDFLEISCH (Rlndflelsch 82E), Bloom 9x5 
Bush 4 V 2 ft. A bright scarlet. The imposing appearance 
is due mainly to the large, broad petals of the bright 
flowers held well above the foliage on strong, straight 
stems. Free bloomer. ..50 
FOREST FIRE. JR. Dahliadel 86S), M ID, 1937, Bloom 3V 2 
x iy 2/ Bush 4 ft. In color it is indeed a miniature Forest 
Fire of very artistic form. It is amber yellow suffused 
and veined soft cardinal...

4i/ 2 ft. Won as the best Formal Decorative in the Seed¬ 
ling Class at Detroit and certified at East Lans ; ng 85E.

for best red Formal Decorative in a number of shows. 
Color, cardinal red, of good form on erect stems. Foliage 
large, bright green and healthy... 1.25 
FORT MONMOUTH (Kemp 85E), Bloom 11x4, Bush, 6i/ 2
