Wonderful New Incurved Eng¬ 
lish Cactus Dahlias 
This collection of Wonderful Incurved Cactus 
Dahlias includes Cactus Dahlias of the very high¬ 
est type, varieties with exceptionally long, very 
narrow florets, which are so tightly quilled, in¬ 
curved, twisted and interlaced as to almost meet 
at the center. These varieties outrival all others 
previously originated, and stand predominantly 
in a class by themselves. The admiration they 
received this past season was remarkable, not¬ 
withstanding the large number of gold and silver 
medals, silver cups and many first-class certificates 
and awards of merit they received. 
I will ship this remarkable collection of Six 
Wonderful Incurved English Cactus Dahlias for
