tubular, rolled and overlapping, the faint shade of pink show- 
ing in the tubes; enormous size, reaching six inches and over 
across. One of the most valuable Dahlias. (See cut.) 
*Mrs. Peart. Is the first real white Cactus Dahlia 
ever raised. The plant is of medium growth, ex- 
ceedingly floriferous, and the flowers stand clear 
above the leaves—a great advantage. The flowers 
are of medium size, of the purest white, with a 
slight tinge of lemon in the centre when it first 
opens; this dies off as the flower ages. (See cut.) 
*Mrs. Langtry. A very handsome variety, contain- 
ing a striking combination of shades. The main 
color is rich creamy white, tipped reddish pink and 
marked on the edge with distinct purplish crimson. 
A strong grower and very profuse bloomer. (See cut.)
