1939 
ALLINGS 
<#> 
JAMES KIRBY (I. D.) The color is crimson shading to 
ruby at center. Plants are ideal growers with a heavy 
insect resistant foliage. You can not go wrong in trying 
it. Roots $ .50 
JANE COWL (I. D.) This giant flower is easily the most 
outstanding variety of the present generation. It is far 
too well known to require any lengthy description. How¬ 
ever, for the benefit of any beginners, we will say that it 
is a glistening bronzy buff of ideal habits, and by all 
means try it. Roots $ .50 3 for $1.00 
JEAN TRIMBEE (S. C.) The rich purple or petunia violet 
of this flower instantly attract. It has heavy petals which 
are not only revolute, but twisted and curled. Plants are 
good growers with long stems. 
Roots $ .75 Plants $ .50 
JERSEY’S DAINTY This incurved cactus is most aptly 
named as both its coloring and form are extremely dainty. 
The color is pure white with just a faint tinge of lavender 
at times. A prolific bloomer with long stems and a good 
cut flower. Roots $ .75 Plants $ .50 
JERSEYS WHITE BEAUTY (I. D.) An excellent cut 
flower white and a fine keeper when cut. 
Roots $2.00 Plants $ .75 
JESSICA DRACiONETTE (S. C.) Our 1935 introduction 
which has made good throughout the country. Named in 
honor of this most charming and petite radio star at the 
1934 A. D. S. exhibition in New York. 
Comparison with the color chart shows the colors to be 
picric yellow suffused with Venetian pink. However, a 
description which we think more readily visualized would 
be peach and cream with a shading of deeper pink on the 
reverse of the petals. The type is semi-cactus almost 
bordering on the informal decorative. The petals turn in. 
making the huge blooms both deep and massive. The 
plants are rugged growing with good stout stems and 
produce an abundance of blooms. 
Roots $1.50 Plants $ .50 
JIM MOORE (I. D.) A Dahlia worthy of a place in any 
garden. It is distinctive in both form and color. The 
petals are long and regular, rolling back at tips. Color 
primrose yellow, shaded gold and suffused salmon. 
Roots $ .50 
JIMMIE FOXX (I. D.) Another 1937 introduction which 
did well in our garden. The formation is deep and shaggy, 
different from existing varieties. Stems are erect and 
size of the blooms is very large standing right on top of 
the stem. The color is coppery red with a touch of 
henna. If you like big ones don’t miss it. 
Roots $5.00 Plants $1.50 
JVDR. K. SVODODA (I. D.) This was a 1937 European 
introduction which we liked very much on account of its 
beautiful rose coloring. Received a Certificate of Merit 
at Storrs in 1937 from which we give the color descrip¬ 
tion, “Rose color and deep rose color, back rose pink with 
high amparo purple tints.” Quite large with long medium 
to heavy stems. Roots $2.00 Plants $ .50 
KAREOL (Incurved Cactus) A very attractive fine petal so 
incurved as to meet at the points of the petals. Wiry 
stems. Color is yellow shading to carmine at the tips. 
Roots $ .50 Plants $ .50 
KISS ME (S. C.) A very unusual bi-color of about four 
inches in diameter. The base color is garnet red with the 
petals edged and tipped white. An exceedingly free 
bloomer and a splendid cut flower. Should be a winner 
in the medium size classes. Roots $ .50 
LAETARE (I. D.) A brilliant orange red suffused gold 
which strike you right in the eye when you see it. 
Medium size, a grand cut flower making it unusual for 
basket work. Plants $ .50
