/ ^ 1. " ivmiULI 1L.1N1. Dahlias do not travel well, besides the field grown roots
re more likely to give a larger and finer crop of flowers. Our customers who have
visited our stores during the season when Dahlias were in bloom had the opportunity
to see our exhibition of flowers cut from our growing stock, and all correctly labeled.
Our large show windows and spacious stores give us unequaled facilities for dis-
plays of flowers in their season and we cordially invite all, whether customer!
or not, to visit us and take advantage of the opportunities given to see the
various varieties and compare them. Our employes are instructed to afford
every aid to visitors in making up lists and selecting varieties whether
they purchase or not. All are welcome.
NEW DECORATIVE
• • • DAHLIA • • •
GOLDEN WEST.
This might well be called the Chrysanthemum Flowered Dahlia ai
in form it resembles the finest Chrysanthemums. The color is a
pleasing bright clear canary yellow. The flowers are from 5 to 6
inch in diameter, very double and never show the center. (See cut.)
Price, 50c. each, $5. 00 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
Grand New Cactus Dahlia, PHOENIX.
It is a brilliant, dark crimson-maroon with a pronounced velvety
finish, enhancing the richness of coloring. The center of the flower la
livened up with flashes of fiery red.
Prie, 35c. each, $3.50 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
New Decorative Dahlia, SEBASTOPOL.
The flowers are bright orange, of splendid substance, keep remark-
ably on the plant and as cut flowers they are unsurpassed.
Price, 40c. each, $4.00 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
New Decorative Dahlia, TRICOLOR.
This variety at once creates a favorable impression because of its distinct
and beautiful combination of colors. The ground color is buttercup yellow,
with a blotch of scarlet on each petal, and as the flower matures the end of
each petal becomes suffused with rosy white forming a pretty tricolor combina-
tion. Price, 35c. each, $3. 50 per doz. (Field-grown roots.)
ne ^, c a tus REV.T.W. JAMISON.
A superb cactus Dahlia of very large size with long incurved petals. The
color is a pleasing bright mauve pink, illuminated with salmon at the base of
the petals. Very symmetrical flowers on strong stems. Blooms freely under
all conditions. (See cut) Price, 50c. each, $5.00 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
New Decorative Dahlia, BELOIT.
Particularly effective on account of its very large double flowers, held well
above the foliage on long stiff stems. The color is rich purplish-garnet shad-
ing deeper toward the center. Price, 35c. each, $3.50 per doz. (Field grown
roots.)
New Paeony' Flowered Dahlia, GEISHA.
A most striking color combination, golden yellow, changing to bright
scarlet at the center of the petal and back to gold at the tip. Petals un-
iquely twisted and curled making the color effect all the more attractive.
Price, 40c. each, $4.00 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
Fancy Decorative Dahlia, METEOR.
The ground color is a brilliant cardinal red edged and marked with
buttercup yellow. Flowers of medium size and very showy. Price, 50c.
each, $5.00 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
New Paeony^ Flowered Dahlia, HON. R. L. BORDEN.
Its graceful, rich golden-bronze flowers stand well above the foliage on
long stiff stems. A strong branching grower and profuse bloomer. Price,
35c. each, $3.50 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
Decorative Dahlia, MONS. CAPRON.
A strong vigorous growing variety bearing large well formed flowers on
long stems that stand in good condition longer than most kinds. The color
is old-rose mottled dark rose-pink; flowers large and full. Very free blooming.
Price, 35c. each, $3.50 per doz. (Field grown roots.)
Decorative Dahlia, QJJEEN MARY.
Among the newer Dahlias this variety may well be considered of more
than passing merit because of its exquisite color and fine form. The flowers
are a beautiful rosy-pink with broad petals of splendid substance. Price,
40c. each, $4.00 per doz. (Field grown roots.)

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
