SUPERB SINGLE DAHLIAS. 



The Single Dahlias flower with such lavish profusion, are so airy and decorative, both upon the plant and wheK. 

 arranged in vases, and withal are so pure in color, they well merit their increasing popularity. They flower early, 

 late and all the time. 



My collection of Single Dahlias is the choicest and best in the whole world. I have always been awarded first 

 prize for Single Dahlias wherever exhibited, during the past six years.
