IVAN PUSHKIN—Dec. (Foreign) A huge dahlia of a 
deep red with reverse of deep brown. A good robust 
grower, of medium height; the massive blooms are 
carried erect on long, cane-like stems. Root.$1.50 
KOJKI—S. C. (Yoshida) Oriental red quite heavily 
shaded with chrome yellow. This spectacular flower 
is of Japanese origin. It is a positive semi-cactus of 
great size and has no faults. First flowers especially 
are well colored and well formed and will be strong 
competition in any showroom. This is the dahlia that 
was listed in our garden last year under number 44 and 
we understand it has done well in all localities where 
it has been tried. Do not pass up this dahlia. Root. . .$7.50 
LELAND STANFORD—I. D. (Ballay) Brilliant car¬ 
dinal red, the Stanford University color. The best and 
brightest big red is our claim for this new introduction. 
Throughout the flower the color is clear, glistening, 
bright red without sjiadings, and best of all it does 
not fade the least in very hot weather. We have had 
flowers measuring 14 inches in diameter and several 
of our customers have reported blooms of equal size. 
The plant is of medium to tall growth with strong 
stem stalks and good foliage. It is an exceptionally 
free bloomer and an early bloomer. Best 25 blooms 
at the San Mateo Garden Fiesta and one of the best 
12 Californians at both San Francisco and Los Angeles. 
Root. $7.50 
LEIDEN’S ELEGANCE—Cactus. Bright crimson to 
deep cinnabar, perfect cactus as regards to form. The 
flowers are produced in great abundance on long wiry 
stems. A very fine cactus variety. Stock very lim¬ 
ited. Root.$1.50 
LORD OF, AUTUMN—I. D. This variety did its full 
share of prize winning and no doubt will be a future 
as one of the Standard varieties. The color is deep 
golden yellow and the blooms are of the largest size, 
making it most desirable for exhibition. Root.$2.00 
LUCERTIA—I. D. It grows larger and produces more 
enormous bloom at one time than our famous Murphy's 
Masterpiece. We do not know how large it can be 
grown for exhibition bloom, but Ave are sure that none 
will be disappointed in growing it. Color, ecru heavily 
flushed begonia pink, or perhaps a pale buff would 
describe the color better. The stems are perfect, long 
and stiff. Root.$1.00 
MAY DAY—I. D. (Ballay) Rosy pink lightly touched 
with gold. A variety of medium size that is an exceed¬ 
ingly prolific bloomer. It will never win as the largest 
flower in the show but with a few plants it would not 
be hard to have a vase or basket of 12 or even 25. Cer¬ 
tificate of Merit at Storrs. Root.$1.50 
MISS GLORY—S. C. Apricot-yellow. What California 
Idol is in the yellow decorative class this is to the yellow 
cactus. It is massive in size, yet an extremely refined 
flower in every sense. A free and an early bloomer 
with perfect stems. At Storrs Trial Gardens it received 
a Certificate of Merit with a score of 86, being the 
largest semi-cactus and within one of the highest score. 
This is a real dahlia with a future. Root.$5.00
