Ruth Van Fleet— 



The Ideal Dahlia! 



ONE of the finest of all Cactus Dahlias for cut flowers. 

 A Stillman creation of the Loma family. Clear soft 

 yellow with extremely large flowers of the most graceful 

 form, measuring 6 to S l / 2 inches across. Note the long 

 stems which extend to the bottom of the io inch vase. 

 Ruth Van Fleet is equally good for garden or cutting. Its 

 graceful flowers are held erect on long stiff stems. A free 

 flowering Dahlia that must be seen to be appreciated. And 

 be it noted particularly that above flowers were grown 

 without disbudding. I do not disbud one of about a thou- 

 sand different kinds which 1 grow each season, and for this 

 reason my customers usually grow bigger Dahlias than 

 I do. 



Field-grown tubers $3.00 each. 

 4 bulbs $10.00. 12 bulbs, $25.00

What's New This Year? 



THE eternal question since the dawn of history, 

 whether the subject be clothes, ideas or Flowers! 

 Our business, for the past twenty years, has been the 

 introduction of floral Novelties for American Gardens. 

 Our Introductions in Roses, Carnations, Chrysanthe- 

 mums and Dahlias represent the best efforts of the 

 world's foremost hybridists. 



In Roses, 



they include the splendid new 

 Rose, "Souv. de Claudus Pernet," 

 the Gold Medal Winner, from France. Two American 

 successes, "Angelus," the superb white, and "Red Col- 

 umbia."

zvrnong me mums, , Mums from Aus _ 



tralia and our own introduction in Pompons, "Red 

 Doty," "Bronze Doty," and "Helena Flint." v 



Red Doty, wine red with a silvery reverse on under- 

 side of petals and showing up distinctly in the short 

 crisp center petals, is one of the finest, if not the finest, 

 we have distributed in several years. Illustrated above. 



Among Single 'Mums, we prize "Countess Egmont," 

 "Larchmont" and "Genevieve." Besides the "Judge 

 Marean Novelties" among Dahlias, we offer this year, 

 for the first time, our 



New Heliotrope Royal Fragrance 



The peer of any Heliotrope we have ever grown. Its deep, 

 violet blue color and wonderful fragrance stamp it as the 

 Heliotrope par-excellence! With all its wonderful character- 

 istics, it is quite reasonable in price. 



4 for $1.00, $2.50 per dozen 



All these Novelties, and many other equally meritorious, are 

 illustrated and described in our catalogue which has already 

 been mailed to our regular customers. We invite all Garden 

 Magazine Readers to write for a copy, and please mention 

 Garden Magazine when writing.
