THE RANGER, INC. C.,

grown to 11 inches we

bloom classes. In color it is 
true purple with white veins 
running the length of the 
petals; reverse isi pure white. 
As the bloom develops the 
petals roll and incurve show- 
ing white lily-like tips. Bush- 
es grow to 7 feet, are rugged 
and very prolific. Different 
from any existing variety. 
Blooms of 8 inches and under 
were entered in three 
Achievement Medal Clasises 
and were runners-up in all of 
them. Certificate winner at 
New York and first in every 
show where individual blooms 
were shown, bucking’ the 
large flowering varieties. On 
all Honor Rolls.

COLIN KELLY, JR., (S.D.G) 
Here is a dahlia that really attains immense size While the bush growth is only 
of medium height with us and is medium prolific, we have seen plants less than 50 
miles from here that were 8 feet high and covered with exhibition blooms 12 to 14 
inches across. Some report that it is an unusually tall grower. It is the most beau- 
tiful solid phlox pink dahia we have ever grown. The stems are slender and long and 
hold the blooms high out of the foliage. In wet weather some potash should be used 
or the stems will not properly hold these immense blooms. On all Honor Rolls. 
Root $15.00, plant $7.50, cutting $5.00
