GOLDEN CITY 
ANNA BENEDICT. Deep garnet red. This is 
one of the two reds we use for cutting. 7 
inch. 5 feet. One of the most insect resistant 
of dahlias. We recommend it highly. 
Root, $0.75 
DEMOLAY. F.D. Bloom 9x5. Color is red just 
a shade deeper than M. Tierney. Very vig- 
orous with broad heavy leaves. Stems long 
and strong, perfect form. Plant, $2.00 
CHASMAY. Bloom 9x5. Clear lavender. A 
very fine lavender formal of fine form. Bush 
growth healthy and _ branches naturally. 
Comes into bloom about mid-season and 
continues until frost. A fine lavender formal. 
Root, $1.00 
SALADINI. One of the oldest varieties. Free 
blooming orange. Dahlias like this are re- 
sponsible for the great advance in the qual- 
ity of dahlias in the last twenty years. Very 
early. 6 inches. 5 feet. Root, $0.35 
QUEEN CITY. The color that has no equal 
in any dahlia or any flower, scarlet pink. 
The dahlia that has revolutionized the cut- 
flower business for many dahlia growers in 
this section. From early July constantly till 
frost it produces and should be cut when 
blooms are two-thirds developed. For great- 
est production and highest quality the 
bushes should be always cut clean of flowers. 
Ball type formal, 6x4 inches. Bush 4 feet. 
Root, $0.50; Plant, $0.50 
THE GOVERNOR. F.D. Bloom 10x5. This is 
easily the best yellow formal. Light bright 
yellow of perfect form, uniform full centers 
with wide petals falling back to the stem. 
Early to bloom it gives a wealth of flowers 
until frost. An unusual quality of “Gover- 
nor” is that the longer it blooms the larger 
the flowers become, many reaching the size 
of twelve inches. Bushes are massive and 
wide spreading, with flowers held facing on 
extra long stems. We believe this to be the 
most prolific bloomer of all the extra large 
dahlias. A good root maker. Height 5 feet. 
Root, $1.35; Plant, $0.75 
VICTORY. F.D. Bloom 9x5. A new color in 
pink, golden pink. Bush is vigorous and free 
branching with canes coming from the base 
of the plant. A gorgeous flower with many 
winnings to its credit. Victory is at its best 
from midseason until frost. Should win as 
formal pink as it will take quite a lot of 
force feeding. Bush 5 feet. 
Root, $2.00; Plant, $1.00 
VOLCANO. F.D. Bloom 12x7. An enormous 
free blooming orange. Voleano has the most 
insect resistant foliage of any dahlia we 
know. This was the best large variety in 
our fields last year, blooming profusely 
through the hot weather. A well grown Vol- 
cano can’t be beaten on the show table. A 
few blooms may come irregular but the 
same plants usually produce perfect ones 
later on. The best dahlia for adverse grow- 
ing conditions we know of. Bush 5% ft. 
Root, $1.00; Plant, $0.50
