COI.L,ERETTE IJAHI.IAS. 



An entirely distinct type of Single Dahlias, which must be seen 

 to be appreciated. The peculiarity of the type consists of then 

 having a row of short petals around the disc, which fuimafiill or 

 collar, and which are of an entirely different coloi fioin the lest ol 

 the flower (the arrangement is well shown m the illustiation) 

 We distributed quite a number of these the past two seasons, and 

 our customers have been highly delighted « ith them

NEW SINGLE DAHLIA 



" Tweiitietli Century." 



No single Dahlia ever created such a sensation or 

 was received with such popular favor as this, anfl it is 

 well worthy of the praise bestowed upon it. It is entirely 



istinct from all olhers, and ranks high not only as a free- 

 flowering plant for the garden but as a cut flower, hold- 

 ing a place alongside the finest Roses. 



The plant is of free branching habit, flowering early, 

 jiiofusely and continuously throughout the season, pro- 



ucing its flowers on stems 3 feet long, and which, afier 

 ' uttmg, keep in perfect condition for days. They meas- 

 uie 4J 10 6 inches in diameter, and early in the season are 

 in intense rosy-crimson tipped with white and having a. 

 white band around the disc. As the season advances 

 iliey become lighter, until they are almost a pure white 

 suffused with soft pink; not variegated, but blended in 

 the most beautiful manner. Roots, 30 els. each; ^3.00 

 per doz.
