Cherokee Brave (Informal Decorative) 
CHEROKEE BRAVE (Ricks-Dahliadel 86E), 1938, Bloom 11 x 6, Bush 5 '/2 ft. This dahlia is one of the 
best rich red exhibition varieties ever introduced, being an ox-blood red that holds its color in the sun. 
It has been a successful and consistent winner on the show table as it has long straight stems, great 
depth, and is easily grown 11" to 13". It blooms early, is very })rolific especially so for such large blooms. 
A prominent grower in Ohio reports it is the best red he has had in ten years. A great prize winner 
that has done well in many sections especially in the Midwest and South. Won as the Best Undissem¬ 
inated Seedling for two consecutive years at Atlanta before being introduced. Award of Honor and Pres¬ 
ident’s Cup at Atlanta, Ga., 1938. Roots, $3.00; Pot Roots, $2.00; Plants, $1.00
