Beautiful New Single Dahlia 
<( Twentieth Century.” 
A grand new single variety, entirely distinct from 
all previous introductions, and not only valuable as 
a flowering plant for the garden, but as a choice cut 
flower, higher prices being paid for it the past 
season than for the finest Roses 
The plant is of free branching habit, commencing 
to bloom early in the season, and producing its 
flowers on stems 3 feet long, and which, after cut¬ 
ting, keep in perfect condition for eight to ten days. 
They measure to 0 inches in diameter, and. early 
in the season, are an intense rosy crimson, tipped 
with white, and having a white band around the 
disk. As the season advances they become lighter, 
until they are almost a pure white, suffused with 
soft pink, blended in the most beautiful manner,

New French Collarette Dahlias. 
An entirely new type of Single Dahlia, which has 
produced a great sensation during the past two 
years wherever exhibited, and which have been 
awarded highest honors. The peculiarity of the 
type consists of their having a row of short petals 
around the disk, which form a frill or collar, and 
which are of an entirely different color from the 
rest of the flower (the arrangement is well shown in 
the illustration). 
[Single Dahlias are the 
vogue in Newpo i t this year.]
