JUBILANT (Dahliadel 86), 1945, Bloom 3 x 2, Bush 
314 ft. We believe this is the first dahlia winning 
the Derrill W. Hart Memorial Gold Medal to score 
85 and better in all 4 Official Trial Grounds the 
same year, with an average of 85.6. It scored 85.5 
ab) Svorrs, Sp at ©.V.D-A., 86 at W. Va. and 86 at 
KE. Lansing, which assures you of its wonderful per- 
formance under various conditions. This little Min- 
iature appeals to us above all other Miniature seed- 
lings we have ever grown. Makes a gay bright 
spot in any garden. Color is cherry red, inclined 
orange, with a lighter reverse. There is just no 
end of blooms, and the picture taken in late Octo-
