DOROTHY GEER F. D. (Geer) This was one of the most attractive and pleasing 
dahlias in our gardens during the past season. The flowers are medium sized; of 
light rose pink, shading lighter towards the tips. Blooms are uniformly of exhibition 
quality. This one should be a factor in classes calling for the most perfect bloom 
in the show. Bushes are tall and well formed. 
Root $3.00, Plant $1.50 
DOROTHY LAMOUR C. (Ballay) One of the few real golden dahlias. Fairly large 
blooms of excellent formation. Long, strong, stems. The bushes are tall with foliage 
more typical of a decorative variety than of a cactus. One of our favorites of the 
1941 introductions. 
Root $3.00, Plant $1.50 
“7771 *DULCINEA St. C. A fine all-around dahlia 
2 of rare beauty of form and color. The 
medium sized flowers are an attractive 
cardinal red and carried in great pro- 
fusion on the best of stems. A most 
consistent winner at shows, a fine gar- 
den sort and excellent for the cut-flower 
trade. We can recommend this highly 
for any garden.

ELIZABETH RETHBERG I. D. (Meussdorffer) 
A large, nicely formed flower of an at- 
tractive shade of lilac to rose pink. Long 
stems hold the flowers well above the 
tall-growing plants. 
Root $1.00, Plant .50 
EL RUBIO |. D. (Redfern) The real sensa- 
tion of our gardens this past fall. The 
very large flowers, consistently twelve 
inches in diameter, of a bright, velvety, 
ruby red commanded the attention of 
all who saw them. Stems are very strong, 
bearing the flowers on top. Bushes are 
rugged and of medium height. 
DULCINEA Plant $1.00 
ENCHANTRESS S. C. (Stoltz) Fairly large flower of bright orange buff with slight 
picotee of rose. Early and free bloomer. Good stems. 

Root $3.00, Plant $1.50 
EVENTIDE |. D. (Bissell) One of the finest of the 1940 introductions. The flowers are a 
deep violet-purple, fairly large, and of distinctive beauty. Each petal is notched, 
adding very much to the appearance of "'fullness'’ created by the rolling of the 
back petals to the stem. A free, early bloomer that will win its share of prizes. 
Plants are broad, spreading, and rugged. Foliage is dark and leathery. 
Plant .75 
FARNCOT In. C. An old-timer, which is still one of the best in the bi-color cactus 
classes. The color is a deep purple, with the outer one-third of the petals tipped 
pure white. Like most bi-colors it will produce some solid colored flowers.
