ALLING’S DAHLIAS - 1941 
Garden & Cut Flower Dahlias 
At the risk of being termed “out of date” we are listing a group 
of old time favorite and desirable cut flower sorts. They have been 
grown in the gardens of Dahlia lovers for many years and many of 
them will be still grown after the present day wonders have been 
forgotten. Their very moderate prices furnish an opportunity to 
brighten up your garden with some real worth while, dependable 
Dahlias at a very little expense. 
Your Choice, any ten different varieties sent postpaid $2.25 
Twenty for $4.25 
ANNABELLE (F. D.) The color for the most part is pure waxy- 
white with just a slight overcast of silvery-pink. Fowers have 
great substance and keep extremely well when cut. Roots $ .35 
AVALON (F. D.) An old but undoubtedly one of the finest pure 
glistening yellows. Lark size, long stems and a strong grower. 
Roots $ .25 
FRANCIS LAROCCO (1. D.) This might be termed a cream yellow 
Jersey's Beauty as it is equally as good a cut flower in yellow as 
Beauty is in pink. It is medium size, has fine stems, and flowers 
are of hard waxy texture which stand shipping well. Roots $ .35 
GOVERNOR TRUMBULL (F. D.) A large free flowering variety 
of clear soft orchid resembling Mrs. I. de ver Warner but lighter in 
color and longer stem. Roots $ .35 
HARRY MAYER (F. D.) Waxy lavender with broad petals. Dwarf 
grower, large. Roots $ .35 
IDA PERRINS (F. D.) We believe this to be the most widely 
grown white at the present time. Easily the best of the cheaper 
priced ones. Roots $ .35 
JEAN CHAZOT (S. C.) Another fine flower of the popular Autumn 
shades. The color for the most part being golden bronze, with 
slight red suffusions. Blooms abundantly on good stems. 
Roots $ .35 
JERSEY’S BEACON (F. D.) This big Chinese scarlet is known 
wherever Dahlias are grown. The flowers are large and globular 
in form. It is a prolific bloomer and very rigid stems. Roots $ .35 
JERSEY’S BEAUTY (F. D.) There is no doubt more of this grown 
for the cut flower markets than any other one variety. The lovely 
pink color, and the many other good points, such as long erect 
stems, and good keeping qualities, make it one of our finest stand¬ 
ard varieties. It should be cut back and induced to branch to 
secure the maximum number of flowers. Roots $ .35 
KENTUCKY (F. D.) A sport of Jersey’s Beauty and identical in 
every way except color which is combination of soft salmon, 
orange and gold. Equally good as a cut flower as its parents. 
Roots $ .50 
MARGARET WOODROW WILSON (I. D.) An exhibition decora¬ 
tive of large size and great beauty. The face of the petals is 
creamy white with a reverse of phlox-pink, giving an opalescent 
effect. Roots $ .35 
MARILDA (F. D.) This may best be described as a glorified Yan¬ 
kee Queen as it has the same soft pink shadings with just a slight 
marking of white on the edges and reverse of the petals. 
Roots $ .35 
META SCAMMELL (1. D.) A big amaranth pink having many 
long curling petals. Free flowering and highly recommended for 
an inexpensive variety. Roots $ .35 
MRS. EDNA SPENCER (Inc. Cac.) This is a Dahlia which can be 
particularly recommended for cutting as the flowers have wonder¬ 
ful keeping qualities, and stand erect on the best of stems. The 
color is also very pleasing, being a delicate orchid shading to 
white. Roots $ .50 
MRS. GEORGE SKEEN (I. D.) Old rose with soft pink suffusions. 
High centers with pointed petals. A good reliable old sort. 
Roots $ .35 
HUNT’S VELVET WONDER, Informal Decorative 
MRS. I. DE VER WARNER (F. D.) We know of nothing better 
in old or new varieties than this orchid giant. An old standby 
which holds its own with the best of the new ones. Very thrifty, 
strong growers, good stems and a fine cut flower. Roots $ .25 
NANAQUAKET (I. D.) Creamy white to soft lavender. Large. 
Long stems and free flowering. Roots $ .35

medium size and resistant to insects. A most popular cut flower 
variety. Roots $ .50 
PATHOS (F. D.) Evenly formed crimson blooms which make ex¬ 
cellent cut flowers. Size 6 to 8 inches. Roots $ .35 
PAPiLLON (I. D.) Old rose with golden shadings. The size is 
large, and it is a wonderful, early bloomer and fine long stems. 
Try this if you want early summer flowers. Roots $ .50 
PERGUNTY (F. D.) T his is one of the brightest and cleanest reds 
we have ever grown. It is a medium size variety, a very free 
bloomer, and an excellent cut flower sort as it keeps well when cut.

an exact replica except that it is clear ivory white. An excellent
