DAHLIA, JUAKEZII. 



NEW DAHLIA, "Juarezii." 



The grandest novelty of the year, and not only a 

 novelty but a most valuable and useful decorative plant 

 for all purpose through the late summer and autumn 

 months. Its blossoms are of a rich scarlet, and very 

 much resemble in shape and color the well-known Cactus, 

 Cerent Speciosiasimus. Height about 3 feet, very bushy, 

 flowers of very striking appearance, and quite unlike 

 those of an ordinary double Dahlia, the florits being flat 

 and pointed. (See cut.) 



$3.00 per dozen. 



HIBISCUS DENNISONII. 



A most beautiful variety with the rose colored flowers, 

 which resemble those of Amaryllis Atamasco in shape 

 and color. The flowers measuring four inches across. 

 are borne freely on upright stalks perfectly erect instead of 

 slightly drooping, as the other varieties of Hibiscus 

 mostly are. 



$2.00 per doz. 



HIBISCUS (Rosa Sinensis) LUTEUS 

 Fl. PL 



The flowers of this variety are of good size, semi-dou- 

 ble, and, as in all this family, produced abundantly. 

 They are of a beautiful lemon color, marked with pink at 

 the base, very distinct. 



$2.00 per doz.
