In this group, we have combined five lovely Dahlias that should be found in 



every garden 



It contains a beautiful range of colors and forms which are not only superb in the 

 garden, but also ideal for cut flowers

 pink-decorative Dahlias we have ever grown. 

 Its formation is on the border line between 

 formal and informal decorative, and is in a 

 color class by itself, it being a beautiful shade 

 of dear Cyclamen pink, the only Dahlia we 

 know of this color. The blooms are produced 

 in the greatest profusion from early season 

 until cut down by frost. 



Price, strong divisions, 75c each; $7.50 

 dozen.

 cates, this is a very spectacular variety, the 

 color being a combination of lemon yellow and 

 brilliant scarlet. Height of plant about 4 Yi ft.
