ALEXANDER'S DAHLIAS 



FIELD-GROWN ROOTS 



For Florists and Seedsmen 



The popularity of the Dahlia is steadily on the increase and you 

 should try these specially selected cut-flower varieties offered below: 



FRANK A. WALKER (New Dpcoratlve Dahlia). A charming shade of lavender-pinlt. 

 with long stiff steins. Produces its flowers in abundance; an exceptionally early 

 bloomer. Good divisions $3.50 per dozen, $25.00 per 100. 



MADONNA (New Peony-flowered Dahlia). A very beautiful white, very slightly tinted 

 with a most delicate shade of lavender-pink. The touch of color adds greatly, rather 

 than detracts from ItR value, especially when made-up in floral work. The form of the 

 flower la perfectly originBl. each petal curling and twisting in a very pleasing manner. 

 An excellent cut-flower variety. Strong divlnions $2.00 per dozen, $15.00 per 100. 



MAUDE ADAMS (New Show Dahlia). A pure snowy white, very daintily overlaid and 

 suffused the sweetest shade of rose-pink imaginable. It is the best of my introductions 

 for florists' use. "Maude Adams" is the most proliflc Dahlia of its color, being more 

 than twice as free-flowering as either "NVrnphaea" or "Sylvia." It has good stems and 

 is an early Dahlia to blossom, continuing throughout the entire season. It has the 

 necessary features that make It stand shipping well, and makes up good in all kinds 

 of work. It has already been tested out in all parts of the country, Raymond Champe 

 of Michigan finding It his best commercial variety. I can furnish strong divisions at 

 $3.S0 per dozen. $20.00 per 100. 



MINA BURGLE (Decorative Dahlia). The finest scarlet Dahlia to my knowledge. Flow- 

 ers of large size, produced in quantity, on long, wiry stems, well above the foliage. 

 Good divisions $1.50 per dozen, $12.00 per 100. 



BIANCA. A new Hybrid Cactus Dshlia of large size and splendid form. Coloring is a 

 beautiful rose-lilac with white shadings and blooms are held perfectly erect on very 

 long, stiff stems. $5.00 per dozen, $40.00 per 100. 



LATONA. An unusual blending of buff and yellow shades, giving a total effect of the 

 Autumn tint that has become so popular. The type is Peony-Decorative, with long 

 petals and nearly full to the center. Fine stems and free-flowering. $5.00 per dozen, 

 $35.00 per 100. 



If you are interested In cut-flower varieties, I will be pleased to recommend you the best varieties in the colors you want, and 

 will give your communication the beneflt of my twenty-six years an a Dahlia Specialist.
