Single Cactus Dahlias. 
In this lovely type, the petals, instead of being round as 
in the ordinary Singles, are long, beautifully twisted, and 
more or less pointed, approximating in these respects to the 
petals of the Double Cactus. The great variety of colour, 
and the extreme delicacy of the artistic shades, combined 
with the lightness and grace of the flowers, make them the 
best adapted of all the group for cutting purposes, and 
particularly for table and room decoration generally.
