PRIZE WINNING CACTUS DAHLIAS— Continued 
PIERROT.. .This we regard as one 
of the finest of the new English 
introduction; the very large flowers 
are of splendid form and are born 
in wonderful profusion, the colo 
varies considerably, the ground 
color being a rich shade of amber 
slightly tinged with bronze ; a part 
of the flowers are tipped with white, 
while others are solid color, but 
in this case the variation adds to 
the charm of the flower. 75c. 
REV. T. W. JAMIESON. This is one 
of the best Dahlias I have, ever sold, 
and whether for first class exhibi- 
tion or any other purpose it will be 
in the front rank. The coloring is 
also of the best, the central young- 
er and unopened petals being yel- 
low, but this quickly changes to 
rose-lilac; the older florets having 
edgings of deeper color, and ex- 
treme tips yellow. 50c.

of soft yellow, the long, incurving 
florets forming a beautiful exhibi- 
tion flower. It flowers early and

flowers throughout the season. 75c.

free flowering, large and beautiful.

Giant Hybrid CACTUS Dahlias 
This type of Dahlia is becoming one of the most popular of the Dahlia 
family. They have broader and more massive petals. As a cut flower they 
are excellent, having, as they most all do, long, stiff stems. 
A. C. LAWRENCE. In this Dahlia we have one of the best Hybrid Cactus 
ever introduced; it is very large and of good substance; the color is 
a fine shade of flesh pink, as a keeper when cut it cannot be excelled. 
Tubers $5.00, Plants $2.50. 
AMBASSADOR. The floral sensation of Los Angeles; the color is a soft 
yellow buff, shaded salmon-pink; flowers of pleasing form, and enormous 
size, 7 to 10 in. without disbudding; the splendid flowers are held erect 
well above the foliage on the strongest sterns I have ever seen on a 
Cactus Dahlia. Plants only $10.00. 
BILLIE BURKE. A soft yellow of large size and beautiful formation. 
The many petals are long and narrow forming a blossom of good sub- 
stance. Blooms freely all season. $1.00.

the petals. The petals are somewhat twisted and interlocked which 
gives to the flower an artistic form. Tubers $5.00, plants $2.50.
