ZEPHYR B-StC-R (Wind) Certificate of 
Merit at East Lansing with a score of 
85.8 C. The general color effect is a 
rich cardinal red. The nicely formed 
flowers average five to six inches in 
diameter. Substance rated as excellent. 
Stems are of medium length. Very 
abundant flowering habits. The bushes 
are free branching with a height of 
four feet and a spread of four feet. 
The branches are slender-to the base, 
but are rigid and erect, permitting 
cutting with long stems. The foliage is 
dark green. Plants do well in the open 
field with a minimum of care. We have 
found this to be the answer to a de- 
mand for a dark red cactus.

possibilities in their arrangement. They also hold a prominent place in all dahlia shows.

disbudding is necessary; the smaller the flower, the better. They require less space than 
the large types and staking is unnecessary except for the taller growing sorts. All are
