R. & J. FARQUHAR CO., BOSTON. DAHLIAS 



99 



NEW AND RECENT DAHLIAS, continued 



Mrs.' A^fE. Wheeler. D. Wonderful new Decorative that has 

 attfJtlted much attention. The color is beautiful fuohsia-red, 

 shaflting to magenta, with reverse of petals striped white, 

 showing in the centre. The habit is ideal — stem long and 

 stiff, profuse flowering. Blooms large and never show an open 

 centre. $3.00 each. 



Mrs. I. de Ver Warner. D. Universal favorite. Clear, bright 

 lilac-rose. A very dependable grower. $1.00 each. 



Nature's Jewel. H.C. Dainty orchid-pink. The exquisite 

 blooms are borne gracefully on long stems. $2.00 each. 



Pride of Stratford. D. Orange, shading to lemon at the base 

 of petals; reverse rose-dore. $1.00 each. 



Robert. Treat. D. A most attractive variety because of its 

 clear, American-Beauty-rose color. $1.00 each. 



Rose Fallon. D. This spectacular, large Decorative is deserving 

 of its popularity. The color is a dark orange tinted with 

 amber and salmon, and is both pleasing and effective. $1.00 

 each. 



Sanhican's Delice. D. Immense flowers of deep pink; profase 

 in bloom. Exceptionally fine. $2.00 each. 



Snowdrift. D. Unquestionably one of the best pure white Dah- 

 has. The plant is a dwarf grower and of branching habit, 

 producing with great freedom its very large, shapely blooms, 

 held gracefully erect on long, straight, slender but stiff stems. 

 Fine for exhibition and garden. $1.00 each. 



Somerset. D. A very large Decorative on fine stems. The color 

 is a blending of salmon and old-rose, with occasional touches of 

 lavender. Healthy and vigorous grower. A prize-winner in 

 California. $2.00 each. 



The Lemonade. D. Beautiful, large flower of clear lemon- 

 yellow — perhaps the best yellow variety. Good stems and a 

 very free bloomer. $3.00 each. 



Violet Wonder. D. The best violet-colored Dahlia to date. The 

 predominating color is a rich napthaline-violet, with under- 

 lying tone of royal purple, lightening to bluish violet at tips of 

 petals, with deep lavender reverse. The strong, vigorous- 

 growing plants produce blooms of massive size on fine strong 

 $2.00 each. 



Walkover Prince. D. This is a wonderful Dahlia in every re- 

 spect. A two-color flower — each petal is nepal-red, which is a 

 shade lighter than brick-red, and is effectively tipped with very 

 pale lemon-yellow; toward the centre of the flower the color 

 again passes to pale yellow. The stems attain a length of 18 

 inches and are stiff and straight. $3.00 each. 



W. J. Erwin. D. No doubt this is one of the best lavender- 

 purple Dahlias ever produced. It surely has size, the best of 

 stems, and is a very free bloomer. This is a Dahlia everybody 

 hkes. $1.00 each. 



Yankee King. D. A new introduction of strawberry-pink, 

 centre petals passing to si)inel-red. The plant is covered with 

 very large blooms which are held erect on long, stiff stems. A 

 perfect variety for cutting and a wonderful addition for the 

 Dahlia planting of distinction. $2.00 each.
