EL RUBIO. I.D. Bloom 12x6. In our opinion 
El Rubio has the most beautiful color of the 
dark reds. Rich, glowing ruby red. A kingly 
flower carried high on long, thick stems. A 
few of the flowers may have irregular cen- 
ters, but all are beautiful. Growth of plant 
is massive and vigorous with extra-heavy, 
dark-green foliage. Height 5% feet. (86) 
Plant, $1.50 
EVA HUNT. I.D. Bloom. 9x5. Creamy white 
with graceful, twisting petals that feel like 
wax. Centers are high and full and stems 
are heavy and extra long. Foliage very dark 
green, height 5% feet. A very fine exhibition 
white and should be more widely grown. 
Root, $0.50 
EVERYBODY’S FAVOURITE. I.D. Bloom 11 
x6. Soft, frosty pink. A very large and grace- 
ful flower that has to be reckoned with in the 
pink class. Plants are wide and free branch- 
ing, foliage very broad and rather light 
green. This is one of the largest and pret- 
tiest of the pinks but is considered rather 
hard to grow. Height 6 feet. (85) 
Root, $4.00; Plant, $1.25 
FIGARO. S.C. Bloom 12x6. The most spectacu- 
lar and startling of all bicolors. A very large 
semi cactus of gold striped scarlet. This is 
a color sport of Satan, consequently when a 
flower comes solid color—as all bicolors 
sometimes do—the result is nothing more 
than Satan itelf. Habit of growth and size 
of bloom all resemble Satan. Recommended 
for exhibition. (80) Plant, $0.75 
FRAU BRACHT. S.C. to Cactus. Bloom 8x4. 
Very light lemon yellow. A perfectly formed 
flower with wonderful keeping qualities. 
Stems straight and long. Foliage is not in- 
sect resistant. Consequently Frau Bracht is 
not recommended for the midwest. Does 
very well in moist, cool climates. Height 4 
feet. (80) Root, $0.75; Plant, $0.50 
GOOD NIGHT. I.D. Bloom 9x5. The most ar- 
tistic and beautiful of all dark dahlias. 
Stems, foliage and blooming qualities are 
all that are to be desired. Color, rich garnet 
shaded maroon. Height 5 feet. Root, $0.50 
GREAT EASTERN. I.D. Bloom 12x6. This is 
rapidly becoming known as one of the largest 
of all dahlias. A bright gold shaded deep 
bronze. Bush is rugged with leathery foliage 
and straight stems. Height 4 feet. With 
proper care, rich ground and disbudding this 
can easily be grown 14 inches in diameter. A 
big root maker. (84) Root, $0.50 
GRAND MARSHALL. S.C. to I.D. Bloom 11x 
6. A very unusual color of reddish violet. 
Flowers are gracefully formed and held fac- 
ing the heavens on strong, thick stems. 
Bushes are massive with healthy, broad 
leaves, height 5 feet. A midseason to late 
bloomer. (80) Root, $1.00; Plant, $0.50 
HASLEROVA. F.D. Bloom 8x4. A fine formal 
bicolor for exhibition. Color, white, flecked 
with French purple. A profuse blooming bi- 
color with excellent stems and habit of 
growth. Height 4 feet. (84) Root, $0.50

HELLY BOUDEWIJN. F.D. Bloom 5x3. The 
best of the medium whites. An extremely 
free-blooming dahlia just a little too large 
for a miniature. Bushes are uniform and 
covered with flowers early and late. Stems 
long and stiff, height 4 feet. Root, $0.50 
JANE DEW. I.D. Bloom 10x5. Probably the 
clearest rose pink color in the dahlia. Early

ing qualities, excellent. (85)
