Maule's Magnificent Dahlias for 1914 



Dahlia, Mrs. Wm. H. Maule. 



NEW AND RARE DAHLIAS 



MRS. WM. H. MAULE. (Decoratlye.) A new sulphur-yellow decorative dahlia, that has 

 attracted the greatest attention. The flowers are of immense size, exquisite form, while the 

 color is one that appeals to everyone. The plant is a very strong vigorous grower, blooms eai-ly, 

 freely and continuously, producing gigantic-sized flowers on long Btiflf stems, making it valu- 

 able for all cut flower purposes and garden decorations, as well as an excellent variety for ex- 

 hibition purposes. Sti-oiig roots, 75 cents eacli; a for $1.35, postpaid. 



PANMURE FAl^JCY. (Decorative.) A splendid dahlia, of a pleasing purple-lake color, each 

 petal tipped and more or less marked with white. These colors on the one flower make this sort 

 a showy, attractive, and striking one. The flowers are produced very freely, on long, stifl* stems, 

 valuable for cutting. Strong roots, 60 cents eacli; 1i for $1.00, postpaid. 



YELLOW GRAND DUKE. (Decorative.) The white Grand Duke Alexis Dahlia has been 

 a favorite sort among dahlia lovers for years, and I am now able to ofler a beautiful aureolin- 

 yellow colored sort, with the same quilled petal formation, and which will be a royal companion 

 to Grand Duke Alexis. This new sort is a strong vigorous grower, produces many immense 

 sized flowers, on long stiff stems, making it excellent for cut flower purposes. 



Strong roots, 30 cents eacii; 2 for 50 cents; $3.50 per dozen, postpaid. 



ETHEIi MAULE. (Show.) First ofl"ered in 1901. The flnest, largest flowering white show 

 dahlia known. Dwarf in habit, and one of the first to bloom, and most prolific. No sort is 

 more admired on my trial grounds, and it is one of the most conspicuously elegant dahlias in 

 my entire collection. Strong roots, 60 cents eacli; 3 for $1.00, postpaid. 



MRS. J, G, CASSATT. (Decorative.) A new giant decorative dahlia, which surpasses any 

 other dahlia of its color. The plant is a remarkably strong, vigorous grower. The flowers ai-e 

 of an immense size, often 6>^ inches in diameter, and always full to the centre. The deep rose 

 pink color flowers are borne on long stiff stems in great abundance. 



Strong roots, 30 cents eacli; 3 for 50 cents; $3.50 per dozen, postpaid. 



ETHEL SCHMIDT. (Fancy Show.) A cross of Storm King and Lottie Eckford, which Is 

 the standard of this type, owing to its early and profuse blooming, together with its long 

 graceful stems. A pure white, flushed delicate pink, dotted and penciled crimson. The flow- 

 ers are very large, and being borne on 18 to 24 inch stems, makes it very valuable for cutting 

 or vases. Strong roots, 35 cents each; 3 for 60 cents; $3.00 per dozen, postpaid. 



MARY HERRIWG. (Cactus.) Our dahlia specialist insists on calling this grand new 

 Panmure seedling after my granddaughter. The long narrow petals are beautifully arranged 

 and form the most exqxusite flower. The color is a beautiful wine-red, greatly admired. This 

 new seedling produces its flowers i a greatest abundance on long stifl" stems, making it one of 

 the best cactus dahlias for cutting or vases and will keep perfect for several days. 



Strong roots, 30 cents each; 3 for^ 50 cents; $3.50 per dozen, postpaid. 



Customers may select any two varieties of the 15-cent dahlias
