| Anyone Can Grow The Improved Countess of Lonsdale (Dahlia) | 



This is by far the most handsome and useful Dahlia of the Cactus type introduced to date. The flowers are 

 large and the color is intense crimson scarlet, lighting up beautifully at night. The flowers, very large, are borne 

 on tall, stiff, erect stems and their profusion is extraordinary. Among the many Dahlia blooms shipped into the 

 N^w York Wholesale Market none are more popular with the retail Florist than the Improved Countess of 

 Lonsdale. Strong divided field-grown roots. Price six for $1.00, $1.75 per doz., $12.00 per 100.
