Used as a cut flower on a dinner or luncheon table, or in vases 
around a room, their graceful airiness is most pronounced. They are 
of the earliest possible culture, if they are planted and allowed to 
grow naturally, and will produce wonderful bushy plants, two to 
three feet in height, literally covered with blossoms. Trimmed, back 
three or four main stems to a plant, and staked, larger sprays and 
better flowers will be prduced. The graceful curve of the petal 
prompted the name Orchid Flowering.

MIGNON DAHLIAS 
To meet the wishes of a great number of customers who wish to 
carry out individual color schemes in the garden, we have the follow¬ 
ing list of individual named Mignon Dahlias to offer them with their 
respective colors. These Dahlias are the delight of all the visitors to 
our gardens and are greatly admired by everyone who sees them. 
Plants do not attain a height of over 15 inches and some of them 
carry as high as 65 flowers open on the plant at one time. These 
Dahlias when grown naturally and used purely for decorative pur¬ 
poses must not be over-fed because feeding them will cause them to 
run into rampant growth and produce less flowers. 
Green plants only. Delivered April 15 onwards. Price: 50c each, 
$5.00 per dozen, $35.00 per 100. 
Innocence —Purest possible white with perfect flowers produced in 
immense masses. 
Golden Sunbeams —A cheerful yellow variety making a nice spot 
of color in the garden and a beautiful subject. 
Bronze Angel —A lovely shade of bronze, particularly striking in the 
fall as it blends so well with Autumn foliage and the tints peculiar 
to that season. 
Cardinal's Cloak —An odd shade of deep pink, shading even deeper 
towards the center. 
Maroon Abundance— One of the most vivid colors in the entire set. 
A shade of color not often seen in qarden flowers. 
Scarlet Soldier —Identically the same shade of scarlet as appears on 
the coats of the guards in Buckingham Palace. Gorgeously striking 
color that can be seen at considerable distance.
