MINIATURE DAHLIAS 
MINIATURE DAHLIAS 
Dahlias illustrated on this page are 
typical of miniature, or small flower- 
ing types. They are becoming more 
popular each year because of their 
adaptability for so many purposes. 
The blooms are of the same general 
form as the large exhibition types, but 
are considered much easier to grow, 
requiring much less attention for dis- 
pudding, etc. Most varieties produce 
more prolifically of both blooms and 
root systems than the larger types. 
Following is a very complete selection 
priced at 35c each, $3.50 per dozen. 
Barbara Doane (SC)—A_ beautiful 
blend of pinks and white; you will 
not be disappointed with this one, 
really a winner for any purpose. 
Bishop of Llandaff—Better known as 
a Duplex type. Bloom a very intense 
red and deriving its extreme popu- 
larity from its contrasting and dis- 
tinctive dark lacy foliage. 
Carlotta (FD)—An outstanding min- 
iature of a vivid light carmine red. 
Has all the characteristics of a 
wonderful cut-flower Dahlia. Bush 
grows the tallest and bushiest and 
most productive of any Dahlia we 
know of. 
Buckeye Star (SC)—Shades of buff 
and orange, a little large for a minia- 
ture, but quite productive.

iature of a very vivid shade of red.
