NEW NOVELTIES FOR 1920 
CHARITY SLOCOMBE (Decorative). This is unquestionably the 
finest white decorative Dahlia grown. Beautiful glistening pure 
white flowers freely produced and carried on long stiff stems 
measuring eight inches and more across, not at all coarse, the 
petals beautifully curled and twisted, giving the flower a very 
refined appearance. $2.50. 
C. W. HAYOEN (Decorative). A very large massive built flower, 
with very long stems, color purplish magenta. $1.50. 
DUDLEY C. HATHAWAY, 2nd (Decorative). A new Dahlia which 
I am listing for the first time. The bushes which are dwarf and 
very rugged are covered with a mass of flowers from six to eight 
inches in diameter, resembling a hugh bouquet. The color is a 
creamy yellow shading out to a white tip. Field grown tubers 
$5.00. 
FLAMING JUNE (Peony Flowered). A new type of peony flow- 
ered Dahlia, it opens up as a large hybrid cactus, gradually 
changing into an exquisite peony flower. As a cut flower it can- 
not be_ excelled, often lasting over a week when cut. Color, yel- 
low with crimson shadings. $3.00. 
GEORGE WALTERS. An enormous hybrid cactus, quite similar to 
Wodan, only much larger. Color pinkish salmon shading to yel- 
low at base. I can highly recommend this variety. $2.00. 
GIGANTIC. One of the finest exhibition cactus ever put on the 
market. The habit is unfortunately not good, the stems being 
pendent. Color pure old gold. 75c. 
GLORY OF NEW HAVEN (Decorative). A seedling, of the well 
known Mildred Slocombe. Color is a beautiful shade of pinkish 
mauve. It is larger than the parent variety, and has a slightly 
higher center. Plants are tall, robust growers, and produce large 
blooms with remarkable freedom, on long, strong stems. Will be 
indispensible for exhibition. $2.00. 
LADY HELEN (Hybride Cactus). A flower of immense size, of the 
finest form, a tall grower. The flowers have long stems,' carry- 
ing the blooms well out from the foliage. Color a pinkish red 
with white shadings. $3.00. 
A good size, free blooming pure white Decorative 
Dahlia for cutting, it is one of the best. $1.00.

cellence, either for garden exhibition or cut flowers. An ex- 
quisite shade of mauve pink with a beautiful silvery sheen, the
