Wm, Agnew. The grandest red Cactus Dahlia ever produced, and one that will 

 eventually find its way into every collection. The flowers are of largest size, 

 sometimes measuring more than 7 inches in diameter, always full to the center ; 

 of perfect form and of exquisite quality and finish, while the color is the richest 

 shade of intense dazzling red. The petals are very long, the outer rows being

 fect habit, will be especially valuable for specimen plants.
