The Straight Petaled Cactus Dahlias 
Mme. Henri Cayeux. 
Under the distinction of “Straight Pet¬ 
aled Cactus Dahlias” we'are offering most 
of the popular Cactus varieties, those hav¬ 
ing long, straight, quilled petals or florets, 
and producing wonderfully graceful flow¬ 
ers. This type is the more popular and 
best, known of the three distinct types of 
the Cactus Dahlia, and is deservedly 
so because of the great beauty, style 
and effectiveness of the flowers, the 
long, graceful stems, and 
strong, sturdy, and up¬ 
right growth of the 
plants.
