CHOICE CACTUS DAHLIAS 
We offer below a choice list of Cactus Dahlias which have proved to bloom well under varying conditions. They are all excellent cut- 
flower varieties, as well as splendid varieties for garden decoration. While numerous Dahlia enthusiasts are growing the Decorative type of 
Dahlias on account of their massiveness, the Cactus Dahlia is still preferred by many flower-lovers on account of its artistic appearance. 
Ambassador. S.C. An outstanding Dahlia at many 
-- of the Dahlia exhibitions, and con¬ 
sidered by many as being one of the best and most artistic 
of recent Dahlia introductions. Its color is, perhaps, best 
described as a soft yellow at the center, with salmon, amber, 
and pink shadings, gradually deepening towards the tips. 
The flowers are of largest size and are set just right on 
perfect stems. A strong grower and free bloomer. $1 each, 
$10 per doz. 
Ballet Girl. L c * A very striking variety as it has 
-- flowers of orange tipped white, clear 
orange, and white striped orange on the same bush—all 
large and beautiful. 50 cts. each, $5 per doz. 
Countess of Claverly. Semi-C. We are ex- 
--— tremely fortunate in being 
able to offer to our customers this very fine Dahlia which 
is, without doubt, the finest, irresistible, real pink Semi- 
Cactus Dahlia, bearing full flowers, 8 to 10 inches across, 
from early in the season until killed by frost. It is a very 
vigorous grower, with fine stems, and' a prolific bloomer. 
The flowers are excellent keepers and are even more 
beautiful under artificial light than outdoors. A sensation 
wherever shown. $1 each, $10 per doz. 
Daddy Butler. S.C. Color, attractive combination 
---- of rosy carmine, with lighter reverse. 
An early and free bloomer on perfect stems. 50 cts. each, 
$5 per doz. 
Ethel T. Smith. Semi-C. Large flowers held erect 
- on splendid stems; lemon-yellow 
shading to white. Very popular. 50 cts. each, $5 per doz. 
F. W. Fellowes. S.C. We consider this one of the 
—---- best Cactus varieties ever raised. 
The flowers are of unusual size for the long, narrow-petaled 
type, and of intense coral-red color with deeper suffusion 
toward the center. A leader in this type at all Dahlia 
exhibitions or for the garden. Excellent as a cut-flower. 
75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz. 
Elkridge. Semi-C. This large, pure white variety is 
-§—- of fine form and great substance. It flowers 
very freely on long, strong stems. Has won many prizes.

-- of burnt-orange, toning to copper, 
the ends of the petals slightly touched with gold. 50 cts. 
each, $5 per doz.

-- very favorably commented on by leading exhibi¬ 
tion Dahlia growers. In habit it is like Ambassador, the flowers frequently
