Dreer’s Dainty Double Pompon Dahlias 
These dainty little gems are admired by everybody, and are de- 
servedly rapidly growing in popular favor. They bloom most pro- 
fusely from early in the season until frost, furnishing at all times an 
abundance of perfect flowers on good stems suitable for cutting, for 
which purpose they are exceptionally well adapted, lending themselves 
admirably to house and particularly to table decoration, where larger
