 yellow, the centre of each petal 

 being flamed and washed with

20th Century. It is impossible to 

 correctly describe this exquisite 

 Dahlia. It must be seen that one 

 may fully appreciate its marvelous 

 beauty. It is a very early bloomer 

 and continues a mass of bloom 

 until killed down by frost. The 

 flowers are single, very large, 4J to 

 6 inches in diameter, sometimes 

 reaching 7 inches. The color is 

 intense rosy-crimson, with white 

 tips and white disc around the yel- 

 low centre. A superbly beautiful 

 and striking flower. Height, 5 

 feet. (See cut.) Price, field-grown 

 roots, 30c. each, $3.00 per doz. 



Leone. Unlike 20th Century, the 

 color is pure white with a delicate 

 blush band, which remains the 

 same throughout the season. The 

 plant is a strong, vigorous grower, 

 but more slender in habit than 

 20th Century, with beautiful 

 Fern-like foliage. Price, 75c. 

 each.
