GILL’S GENERAL LIST OF DAHLIAS. 
CACTUS AND HYBRID CACTUS. 
Explanation.—Those varieties in our list which are capitalized are the newer intro¬ 
ductions. Previously we have made a separate list of novelties, but believe that this 
system will be more convenient and less confusing. H. C. indicates Hybrid Cactus; these 
have broader and more massive petals. We have numerous other varieties which, for lack 
of space, we do not list; but if there are other varieties you wish, please write us, as we 
may have them. The list we have represents the world's best Dahlias.
