This is a 1954 dahlia nursery catalog from Rocky River, Ohio. The publication contains general ordering information, cultivation guidelines, and detailed descriptions of dahlia varieties, classified by size, flower type, and color. Featured are five Rocky River introductions: Adelaide, a six-to-seven-inch orange formal decorative; Harmony, an eight-inch camellia-rose pink incurved cactus; Harry A. Beals, a large reddish-purple informal with silver petal reverses; Little Rachael, a bright rose-pink miniature seedling; and Miss Echo, a yellow cactus blooming eight to nine inches. The catalog explains propagation methods for green plants, rooted cuttings, pot roots, and dormant roots, with pricing and shipping information provided for each variety and propagation type.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
