Dreer's Select DAHLIAS. 



It has been gratifying to us to note the remarkable interest which has 

 been taken in the Dahlia the last few years. This, to a great ex- 

 tent, has been due to the numerous improved new forms which 

 have been placed on the market, the majority of which we 

 have been the first to offer in our catalogues. 



While we exercise all possible care and precaution to 

 keep our stock pure and true to name, exceptional 

 trouble was experienced with that sent out last 

 season, largely due to the fact that on September 

 19, 1904 (four weeks earlier than usual), a severe 

 frost cut down the plants before it was possible to 

 have them all correctly labeled. Last fall we 

 had no frost until the end of October, enabling 

 us to true them up, and the roots were dug, 

 sorted and stored by our most experienced 

 men, and our customers can depend upon re- 

 ceiving this season stock true to name. 



NOTE — Unless otherwise specified, all 

 Dahlias are supplied in strong roots, and 

 we believe our supply this season is ample 

 to nieet all demands. However, in case the 

 demand for certain varieties exhausts our 

 supply of roots, we will send out grow- 

 ing plants, which will give equally as 

 good results. 



PINK CACTUS DAHLIA 

 " KRIEMHILDE " 



Pink Cactus Dahlia 

 Kriemhilde. 



The most Popular Dahlia in Cultivation. 



No Dahlia heretofore introduced has met with such popular favor as Kriemhilde. In color a brilliant pink and white, 

 the outer edge being pink, gradually shading lighter to the centre, which is at first a creamy white, changing to pure white. 

 It is of sturdy habit and free growth, producing freely and continuously its exquisite blooms on long stems, making it an ideal 

 flower for cutting. 15 cts. each; $1.25 per doz. ; $10.00 per 100. 



New Cactus Dahlia, Victor Von Scheffel. 



After seeing Kriemhilde it is difficult to picture an equally or even 

 more beautiful variety in the same general class of color, but in this 

 new aspirant we really have such a sort. It has the same good 

 qualities of free growth and free blooming, but in color 

 more tender and pleasing, the deeper shadings being of 

 the softest pink, fading off to pure white at the center 



While in a general way similar to Kriemhilde, 

 it is entirely distinct, and there is ample room for 

 both of these truly exquisite varieties. 



35 cts. each ; $3.50 per doz.; $25.00 per 100. 



Three Giant Dahlias. 



Qigantea. The most distinct variety in the 

 Decorative class yet introduced, and, as its 

 name implies, gigantic in every way. 

 Growing about five feet high, it pro- 

 duces flowers frequently over six inches in 

 diameter, - of a pleasing shade of creamy- 

 white. Strong growing plants ready
