SINGLE DAHLIAS 



The modern Single Dahlias are so graceful and airy 

 and with all so decorative upon the plant or when ar- 

 ranged in vases and so pure in color that too much can 

 scarcely be said in their favor. All have long stems and 

 are early and free bloomers. 



For three consecutive years the American Institute 

 at its Dahlia Show has awarded me first premium for best 

 display and several special prizes on Single Dahlias. 

 TWO NEW SINGLE DAHLIAS. 



Dr. Hexamer. 



DR. HEXAMER— A variety that originated at the 

 Monmouth Nursery and now first offered. The flowers 

 are large, rich velvety maroon, with distinct markings of 

 canary yellow at base of petals, forming a unique and 

 very pleasing contrast. Broad petals which overlap and 

 are recurved, forming a round well built up flower. 

 Blooms are borne on long, slender, stiff stems, causing 

 them to nod like Lilies with every breeze. Awarded a 

 certificate of merit by the American Institute. (See 

 cut.) Each, 75c; doz., $7.50. 



SEAWOOD — Very large, flat flower. A pure, brilliant 

 orange scarlet self — a new color in single Dahlias. A 

 spreading plant, strong grower and very free bloomer. 

 Blooms held on extra long, stiff stems. A grand variety. 

 Awarded certificate of merit by the American Institute. 

 Stock limited. Each, $1.00; doz., $10.00. 



SUPERB SINGLE DAHLIAS. 



ALBA SUPERBA — Large, pure white flowers, slightly 

 shaded with canary-yellow at base of petals. 



CRIMSON CENTURY— Deep, glowing crimson, 

 shaded with rich wine and tipped with rose and white. 



HELENA CENTURY— Flowers six to eight inches in 

 diameter ; an even, clear, deep pink throughout without 

 variation or blemish. A profuse bloomer. Each, 25c ; 

 doz., $2.50. 



IRIS — Flowers of great size. Brilliant crimson-purple 

 in blotches upon a light, rosy-lake ground; resembling, 

 to a degree, a fine Japanese Iris — hence the name. 

 Each, 25c; doz., $2.50. 



LAVENDER CENTURY— Star-like flowers of deep, 

 lively lavender or rich wine. 



PINK CENTURY— Of immense size— six or eight 

 inches in diameter. Delicate shell pink, suffused with 

 pure, soft pink. A strong grower and a very free 

 bloomer. 



PRES. VIGER— A French collarette Dahlia. The 

 petals are rich, reddish maroon with velvety luster; each 

 flower having a collar of lace-like, pure white petals. 

 Both odd and beautiful. 



SCARLET CENTURY— Of large size and perfect 

 form. Brilliant, dazzling scarlet with center of vivid 

 yellow, producing an effect that is well nigh startling. 



THE RECORD— Clear yellow, with center of petals 

 splashed with scarlet. Unique and interesting. 



TWENTIETH CENTURY— The variety that created 

 a sensation upon its introduction. The color is intense, 

 rosy-carmine, the petals being deeply tipped with white 

 and with a white disk around the bright yellow center ; 

 as pure and rich in color as an orchid. 



WHITE CENTURY— The flowers are six to seven 

 inches across and purest snow white, resembling a 

 mammoth Cosmo. Extremely chaste and graceful. A 

 grand variety. Each, 25c; doz., $2.50. 



WILDFIRE — Large open flowers of brilliant flame- 

 scarlet. A marvel in profuse blooming. 



YELLOW CENTURY— Large, pure canary-yellow 

 flowers. Distinct in color from any other Smgle Dahlia. 

 Each, 25c; doz., $2.50. 



Price (except as noted) each, 15c; doz., $1.50; 100, 

 $10.00. 



-A. set — one each of the thirteen — for $2.00.
