DAHLIAS 



The Dahlia is now recognized 

 as the most popular out-door 

 Fall flower, and, as they re- 

 quire little or no attention, it is 

 no wonder that with the recent 

 introductions of Cactus, Pompon 

 and the fancy show varieties, 

 that they now occupy such a 

 prominent place. The Dahlia 

 of old would now hardly be 

 recognized as belonging to the 

 same species when compared 

 with the improved varieties of 

 ta-day. So gi-eat has been the 

 interest manifested in the Dahlia 

 that it has led to the forming of 

 the American Dahlia Society, 

 which held its first exhibition 

 last September, at which time 

 our display of cut blooms was 

 awarded a Certificate of Merit. 



New Nymphae Dahlia 



or 



Pink Water Lily 



This magnificent grand new Dahlia is the most 

 distinct variety ever offered ; the bush is quite dis- 

 tinct, having the appearance of a rose bush, and 

 bearing the flowers on strong stems. The flowers 



are of very large size, and resemble in both form and color the Pink 

 Water Lily ; the color is clear and a distinct pink, shading to a darker hue 

 toward the outer petals. The large flowers are most exquisitely 

 formed, being soft, delicate and graceful, keeping perfect several days 

 after being cut. The petals are broad, which are incurved toward the 

 centre, while the outer petals are extended full length. As a cut 

 flower it has no equal, and blooms at a time when flowers for cutting 

 are scarce. 



Fine Field Grown Tubers, 25 cents each 

 Postpaid. 



Wm. Aj^new 



The grandest red Cactus Dahlia ever produced. Flowers are of 

 largest size, sometimes measuring more than 7 inches in diameter, and 

 always full to the centre ; of perfect form and of exquisite quality and 

 finish, while the color is the richest shade of intense dazzling red. The 

 petals are very long, the outer rows being beautifully twisted ; the 

 plant is a strong symmetrical grower, and, owing to perfect habit, will 

 be especialLy valuable for every purpose.
