Cactus Dahlias.
Cinderella. Bright purple, the color deepening to a rich
velvety shade in the centre ; free flowering.
Countess of Lonsdale. An exquisite shade of nch salmon
with just a suspicion of apricot at die base of the petals,
towards the tips the color deepens gradually into the softest
of carmine pinks, producing as a whole one of the most delight-
ful combinations of colors imaginable ; the .shape of the
petals and of the whole flower leaves absolutely nothing to be
desired.
Island Queen. Medium-sized flowers of perfect form on long
stout stems of a beautiful light mauve color.
Firebrand. Richest velvety crimson ; petals long, narrow and
quite pointed, the finest of its color and a variety that should
become a great favorite.
King^f isher. Bright carmine ; the petals splendidly curled to a
point, and curved inwards in an elegant irregular manner ;
flowers of medium size and very free.
Mrs. Dickson. Lovely soft rose, passing to yellow at the
base of the petals, which are long and pointed ; a beautiful
loose and graceful flower.
Mr. Moore. A perfectly formed flower of a rich cherry-red ;
one of the very best of the dark colored varieties.
INibelungen. A peculiar shade of carmine overlaid with deep
velvety crimson ; a most perfect flower, with long curled and
pointed petals.
Queen Wilhelmina, Dark velvety crimson, shading to light
yellow at the base of the petals ; a dwarf growing and very
free flowering variety.
Sieglinde. The well-formed graceful flowers are raised well
above the foliage on stout, stiff stems ; color pure amber, shad-
ing to delicate chamois at the tip of the petals.
Sigmund. A fresh pleasing rosy carmine ; flowers of most
perfect form.

cutting.

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.
