Maude Lovctt. 



The single Dahlias flower with such lavish profusion, 

 are so airy and decorative both upon the plant and when 

 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 five years.
