Peony-Flowered or Art Dahlias 



The artistic flowers are best compared to the semi-double Peonies 

 in general form. They all flower very freely and are bome on long, 

 strong stems, making excellent material for cutting as well 

 as for garden decoration. 



Dreamlight . A large full flower composed of many narrow 

 flat petals of a lovely shade of pale old rose illuminated 

 with yellow at the base. Numerous twisted and curled 

 petaloids around the disc make the peony formation most 

 perfect and the flower most attractive. $1.00 each. 



Drum Major. One of the largest of the Peony-flowered 

 type which under ordinary field culture attains a size of 

 over 8 inches; in color, it is one of the most brilliant, 

 a rich fiery-red which is intensified by a lemon-yellow 

 centre with which the petals are also more or less tipped 

 and marked; early and stands out most prominently in 

 the garden. SI .00 each. '

 good form, of a bright mauve-pink. 35 cts. each.

graceful Dahlia of this type yet introduced; its flowers

French purple or carmine-crimson, freely marked, shaded and suffused 



with white. 50 cts. each.
