‘Decorative’ Dahlias 
A. C. Ide. This is a grand variety and one certain to be in demand, especially for exhi- 
bition. The color is rich velvety maroon. The flowers are large,. of fine Gualitys and 
are produced freely on erect stems. Most of the petals are broad and flat, but some of

large, with broad petals, light lemon yellow in color. The plant is a strong grower, of 
branching habit, producing flowers in great quantity.

tie polage on long stiff stems. The color is rich purplish-garnet, shading deeper toward 
the center. 
Delice. A large Dahlia of beautiful form and splendid size. It is an exquisite glowing, 
rose pink, a soft yet brilliant color.

rose-pink. The flowers are held well above the foliage on stiff stems. 
Friday. The color is buff shaded in the center when opening with orange changing in the 
fully opened flower to a rich golden bronze. 
Hortulanus Witte. One of the most valuable Dahlias yet introduced, both as a blooming 
lant and for cut flowers. Pure white in color and fine regular form; broad petals, per- 
ectly full flowers. A variety that should be in every collection, especially where cut 
flowers are wanted. 
Jack Rose. A brilliant crimson-red with fiery tones in the center of the flower, the whole 
overlaid with a soft violet-maroon. 
Papa Charmet. A wonderfully rich shade of coral-red, overlaid with a darker shade of 
velvety maroon. The flowers are of good size under normal conditions and by disbudding 
flowers 6 inches or over across may be had. The habit is ideal, compact, medium height
