TRUE CACTUS DAHLIAS. 
The Cactus Dahlias have become very popular and deservedly, 
ilybndizcrs the world over have been devoting extra attention to them 
80 that the improvement is very marked both in form and coloring. 
In the latter particular this type shows more variation and pleas- 
Hg combinations than is found in the others. The flowers are 
borne airly on long stems, they arc lighter than the others, more 
loosely formed, more graceful, consequently are of the greatest 
value for cut flowers. The petals are long and rolled usually 
to a rounded point; they are incurving and erect in many 
varieties giving great depth and character to the flowers.
