dahlias. A sulphur yellow with whitish re- 
verse. 10-11 inches. 5% feet. For us it has

use it as a local cut flower, cutting young 
flowers. 8 inches. 5 feet. (87) Root, $0.50

tipped white. It blooms early and freely, 
and is without doubt the most beautiful bi-

seven feet in height with blooms held on per- 
fect stems. (85) Plant, $2.00
