SMALL VARIETIES 
DAHLIADEL 1947 INTRODUCTIONS 
MISS PLUMB (Beaver-Dahliadel 85M), M FD, Bloom 2 x 1!4, Bush 
2 ft. Miniatures in purple are very rare, so we feel this dainty one 
will become very popular, as it is a bright rhodamine purple shad- 
ing lighter at the base of the petals. Blooms are small, but full 
centered. A fine grower, with strong slender stems. Certified at 
W. Va. On all three Honor Rolls. : 
Root, $3.00 NET; Pot Root, $2.25 NET; Plant, $1.50 
BABY SEA FOAM (Dahliadel 85M), M ID, Bloom 2'% x 2, Bush 
2'% ft. This darling Miniature grows small naturally and branches 
readily. Produces fine flowers on good stems for cutting from early 
until the end of the season. It has an abundance of petals which 
are serrated, and the-fernlike foliage adds much to its attractive- 
ness. Color, a blush pink with a white center. A dainty variety 
giving you a profusion of blooms. On Dudley’s Honor Roll.

MORNING GLOW (Dahliadel 85), S$. Bloom 4, Bush 3 ft. We have 
been looking for a real good pink Single for some time, and this 
most pleasing pink is destined to win many friennds. It is a bright 
amaranth pink or violet rose with a spot of scarlet at the base of 
each petal resembling a Halo effect, against the yellow center. It 
is a fine grower with strong stems. An early bloomer that keeps 
well for cutting. Root, $3.00; Pot Root, $2.25; Plant, $1.50 
SNOW BABY (Dahliadel 85M), M FD, Bloom 3 x 2, Bush 4 ft. A 
really worthwhile Miniature similar in form to Snow. A slight 
cast of lavender at the center shows on the very first blooms, and 
then they are a pure white the rest of the season. Blooms are of 
perfect form, on long slender stems. There are just multitudes of 
flowers and the picture taken Oct. 20 shows the center formation 
at the end of the season. A wonderful Miniature for exhibiting, 
cutting for the home, or as a commercial cut flower. Also a fine 
root maker. Certified at W. Va., Storrs, and O.V.D.A. (A con- 
tender for the Derrill Hart Memorial Award, losing to Fuschia 
Gem.) On Dudley’s Honor Roll.
