: MARGRACE I. D. (Bissell) A really striking 
variety of brilliant scarlet, tipped gold, 
and with gold at the base of the petals. 
Large flowers, long stems and _ tall 
bushes, of open growth. A consistent 
winner. 
Plant .50 
*MARION SMITH |. D. This Australian in- 
troduction of recent date is one of the 
finest from this source. The blooms can 
be grown to very large size as shown 
by its winnings in ‘largest bloom" 
classes. The color is Tyrian pink over- 
laid mallow pink. Strong, erect, stems 
hold the flowers erect. Petals roll well 
back giving the bloom a massiveness 
without coarseness. 

MARGRACE Plant $1.50 
MARY LYNN DUDLEY S. C. (Dudley) A very large semi-cactus in the dark red 
shades. True carmine with outer petals of a rich, velvety, texture and the centers 
almost black. A nicely formed flower on long stems. 
Root $2.00, Plant $1.00 
MARY TAYLOR St. C. (Taylor) A fairly large cactus of grenadine pink flushed cream 
and with a yellow center. A good grower and root-maker.

*MAVIS TIERNEY F. D. Large blooms of blood red: a very striking flower on a strong, 
rugged plant. One of the best of this color and type. 
Plant $1.00 
MICHIGAN RADIANCE S. C. (Wolfe) An attractive, medium sized flower. Deep 
yellow center with brownish-pink shadings toward the outer edge. Flowers have 
very good depth. 
Root .75 
MICHIGAN WHITE S. C. (Keiser) One of the very best of the white cut-flower dahlias. 
The well formed flowers seem to "pop" out over night on long, strong stems. Sub- 
stance of the flower is excellent, the flower keeping well when cut. Blooms are of 
medium size. 
Root $1.00, Plant .50 
MILTON J. CROSS |. D. (Johnson) Another really big one that has been a standout 
in our gardens. Tall plants holding the large massive blooms high above the 
foliage on long, slender, wiry stems. The color is a clear gold at the center 
shading to a peach apricot at the outer third of the petals. 
Root $1.00, Plant .50 
CLUMPS 
Owing to greatly reduced plantings of dahlias last spring and excessive rains which 
destroyed a considerable number of those planted, we were unable to quote prices on 
clumps the past fall. We hope to be able to resume our clump quotations next fall. 
Write for prices, stating varieties in which you are interested, as we do not expect 
to issue a general clump list until after the war.
