ETHEL MAULE 
NEW PURE WHITE 
LARGE FLOWERING SHOW DAHLIA. 
This new show dahlia, which I first offered last year 
is the finest large flowering and free blooming white 
dahlia known to date. The seedling was produced at 
Briar Crest. The large full flowers, delicate whiteness 
and chaste appearance is the admiration of every one 
who has grown or seen this great novelty. Pleasing 
growth, being dwarf and compact; the flowers are borne 
in great profusion well above the foliage, while the 
blooms are the largest of all and pure white in color. The 
illustration from a photograph shows the exquisite 
curvatures in petal formation. It certainly is the dah- 
lia novelty of the new century. My stock is still limited. 
Price, good strong roots, $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50.
