Semi-Cactus or Informal 
Decorative Dahlias

ADDA PATERSON. Still one of the best hybrid 
cactus, pure whites of large size. Flowers, 
while large, are good for cutting, and for ex¬ 
hibition purposes. Very tall well formed 
plants that have long stems, holding flowers 
above the splendid foliage_$ .50 
ALICE WHITTIER. An immense flower of prim¬ 
rose yellow, that grows to perfection here 
every year. The 10-inch blooms will win 
prizes at any show_ .40 
ATTRACTION. Another hybrid of large size. 
A perfect blending of lilac rose and orchid 
pink. Free bloomer on erect long stems_ .40 
CIGARETTE. A good cutting variety, with fair 
stems, which can be improved by pruning while 
young. Flowers are an orange red with white 
spots and blotches, no two flowers being 
marked alike, which makes this Dahlia very 
interesting to many people_ .20 
COLOSSAL PEACE. Both semi-cactus and true 
cactus on same plants. A large flower of light 
pink, shading to rose pink at center. Petals 
are larger than most true cactus varieties. 
Prolific and easily grown- .25 
COUNTESS OF CLAVERLY. A real pink in a 
semi-cactus is something new. A vigorous 
grower and strong stems. Flowers are large 
and of perfect type_ .85 
DADDY BUTLER. An old favorite of ours, and 
still liked. Color is a bluish carmine rose with 
lighter reverse_ 
EDNA FERBER. If we were to have only one 
semi-cactus Dahlia, it would be this variety, 
as it is a wonderful flower of glistening coral, 
shading to old gold at center. While very 
large, yet it is artistic. A free bloomer with 
strong stems, and thrifty plant_ 
EAGLE ROCK WONDER. A mammoth flower 
of orange buff, with tints of gold, pink and 
coral red, giving a general effect of orange 
apricot _ 1.00 
EMMA MARIE. A large and easily grown Dah¬ 
lia of deep rose with lighter center. Plants 
are vigorous with good stems, and makes a 
good cutting variety_ .25 
GAY PAREE or JEAN CHAZOT. One of the 
most prolific sorts for cutting. Color, is golden 
bronze with nasturtium suffusion; medium size 
flowers_ .15 
GEORGE WALTERS. Every year, some grower 
comes out with a variety that is claimed to be 
an improvement on this Dahlia. We have tried 
out many of these, and find their claims not 
justified. A wonderful flower of large size 
and colors of brilliant salmon pink, suffused 
with old gold. One of the best for cutting, 
exhibition and garden decoration_ .25
