 colors, and forms which are not only superb in the garden, but also ideal for cut flowers. 



1 . SON OF SATAN— I. C. This beautiful cactus, 

 a decided improvement over the variety Satan, 

 both in color and size, is of real exhibition quality.

 held high on long, straight stems.

2 . M YRA HOWARD— I . D. The color is a glow- 

 ing combination of yellow cadmium and gold, with 

 tints of salmon, the entire effect being ochreous 

 orange. Throughout the deep flower are petaloids, 

 which give it distinction. A wonderful plant and a 

 thrifty grower, producing giant blooms freely on 

 long, strong stems. Certified at Storrs, Conn., 

 and has won many prizes.

3. JERSEY'S WHITE BEAUTY-F. D. It is 



our opinion that this is the most perfect White 

 Dahlia ever developed, as it possesses many of the 

 outstanding qualities that made the Jersey's so 

 famous. It is not a massive flower, as it is rarely 

 over seven inches across, but it makes up in 

 prolificy. 



It begins flowering early and continues through- 

 out the summer. The flowers are pure glistening 

 white, of perfect formal design, with perfect centers. 

 The flowers also have wonderful keeping qualities 

 when cut. The plant is healthy and vigorous and 

 grows about five feet high.

4. JIM MOORE — S. C. This has proven to be 

 one of the most satisfactory semi-cactus varieties 

 offered by us. It is a fine healthy grower and the 

 large flowers are produced on good strong stems. 

 Very distinct in form and color. The petals are long 

 and regular, rolling back at the tips. The color is 

 primrose-yellow, shaded gold and suffused salmon.
