SPRING CATALOGUE OF SEEDS, BULBS AND PLANTS FOR 1906. I 09. NeWImperial Gaetas Delias. THE FINEST DECORATIVE FLOWER FOR SUMMER AND FAI,I,. These are not the ordinary form o£ Cactus Dahlias, but a new strain, with blossoms of enormous size, perfectly form- ed and double to'the center. Some have wide, flat petals, others have petals quilled at the ends and flat in the middle, Many of them reixMnd one of magnificent Japanese Chrysan- themums. In color they represent a varied brilliancy and richness not before seen in Dahlias; intense scarlet, delicate pinks, snow-whites, and tinted forms, straw color, lemon and orange-yellow, dark maroons almost black, with a velvety texture that is certainly wonderful: striped, blotched and variegated; in fact all colors and combinations. These wonderful new Dahlias grow very easily from seed or cut- tings, and flower in a remarkably short time, and make beautiful pot or garden plants. As cut flowers for vases or any sort of decoration these Dahlias are positively the fin- est things in cultivation. Without seeing them no one can realize how graceful and beautiful they are as a cut flower. Anna I<iese—Bright royal purple with blue cast. Elegant.
