New Dwarf Dahlias 
For Pot Culture and Landscape Planting 
The wonderful new race of Dahlias primarily introduced for 
greenhouse blooming in pots, not only serve well in this respect, but 
are also unusually useful for planting in borders in the garden. 
In the greenhouse or conservatory they can be forced into bloom 
for Easter and the months following. When they have served for 
this purpose they may be transplanted to the garden and will there 
continue to bloom until frost, after which, following a short rest, 
they may again be potted for indoor blooming. 
The habit of the plant is compact and dwarf, producing flowers 
when they are a little over a foot in height after forming only a 
very few pairs of leaves.

produced. 
Elsie. Deep golden yellow at center passing to rich orange-carmine 
towards the tips of the petals. Flower of good size and excellent 
form. Free and vigorous. Semi-Cactus. 
Gertrude. Clean sulphur-yellow. Good size. Very compact either

Kate. Bright orange-scarlet. Bright showy flowers are of formal 
contour. A formal decorative.

verse. Flowers large. 
Growing plants in pots, $1.00 each; set of 6 for $5.00.
