General List of Superb Incurved Cactus Dahlias 
This collection includes all the Incurved Cactus Dahlias to date, commencing with the first of this type 
—those showing an inclination to incurve, and gradually showing the remarkable development, from 
slightly incurved, through the moderately incurved and claw-like, to the very highest type, with tightly 
incurved, twisted and interlacing petals. They not only possess the distinctive characteristic of being 
incurved, but possess beautiful colors and are of large size. 
I will ship this collection of 42 Superb Incurved Cactus Dahlias, prepaid, to any part of the United 
States for $10.00, or this collection, with the four preceding collections (72 distinct varieties), for $25.00, 
prepaid.
