Japanese Dahl ias 
Some of the finest cactus dahlias of recent 
years have originated in Japan. The first four 
have been released for delivery this Spring. The 
rest of the list may be seen and ordered next 
Fall. We are not importing any roots from Ja¬ 
pan this season. 
Senshin—A monster, pure snow white, gracefully 
incurving, with long narrow talon-like petals. 
Flowers open upright on long strong stems 
and easily attain width of twelve inches or 
more. We have grown this variety and can 
endorse all the originator claims for it. $5.00.

white. Won us a blue ribbon in the Inter¬ 
national Horticultural Exposition. $3.00.
