CLI BRANS' DAHIJAS FOR 1910. 
May, 1909. Warwick. 
Dahlia plants to hand to-day are quite 
satisfactory. I feel sure that with such plants as 
these I shall not fail to come out as a prizewinner.

Cactus Dahlias. 
Of all sections of Dahlias the Cactus-flowered varieties are 
far and away the most popular. They embrace the widest 
range of colour, are generally of good habit, and very floriferous. 
The flowers consist of long, narrow, pointed florets, each floret 
being reflexed at the edges, giving it the appearance of a long, 
narrow claw. They are most popular for exhibition, garden, or 
room decoration.
