New American Dahlias 



of our own introduction 



We take pleasure in presenting- on this and 

 the following page the Eight Splendid New 

 American Sorts, which are now offered for the 

 first time. We acquired the entire stock of 

 these from the raisers, after giving them a 

 thorough test in our own trial grounds. They 

 were selected out of some sixty new varieties 

 which were submitted to us by different grow- 

 ers of new sort-, and we unhesitatingly r< i on: 

 mend them as valuable additions and believe 

 they will quickly become firm favorites in 

 all collections of fine Dahlias. All of them 

 are very free flowering, the masses of bloom 

 which they produce making them valu- 

 able for garden decoration, and at the 

 same time each one will prove desirable 

 for cutting purposes. 



These new varieties can only 

 be furnished in green plants, 

 ready for delivery after April 

 15th.

New 



Decorative Dahlia 



Easton 



Not an extra large 

 flower, but a variety 

 which, on account of 

 its brilliant color, good 

 form and remarkable 

 free-flowering habit, is 

 certain to become a 

 standard, both as a cut 

 flower as well as for 

 garden decoration; in 

 color it is a brilliant Turkish or Oriental 

 red. 50 cts. each; $5.00 per dozen. 



New Decorative Dahlia Eventide 



A splendid flower of perfect form, on long, 

 >tiff stems, which for all purposes may be 

 termed a white Dahlia, there being but the 

 faintest flush of delicate rose on the edge of 

 the flower, which seems to intensify its pure- 

 ness. 50 cts. each; $5.00 per dozen. 



New Cactus Dahlia General J. B. Seth 



A rich, gorgeous Dahlia of a brilliant scar- 

 let, with orange-scarlet shadings, of perfect 

 form, held well above the foliage on stiff 

 stems; this variety has been a glow of color 

 until the first week in November. 50 cts. each; 

 $5.00 per dozen.
