MISCELLANEOUS DAHLIAS. 



Ready in April. 



Each. 



Juarezi, (Cactus Dahlia.) Dazzling scarlet, long petals curiously twisted at the points ; 

 they are as brilliant as those of a Poinsettia, and resemble somewhat the flowers of 

 a Cactus ; a grand bedding Dahlia.... ...$0 40 



Maximilian. A very large growing species from Mexico. Flowers during winter in a 



warm green-house. Flowers semi-double, purplish lilac 40 



Zimgepani, Black Dahlia, ( Bidens Atrosanguinea.) A very interesting species, admi- 

 rably adapted for massing, and for the decoration of the border. It is of a neat 

 compact habit, very free flowering, and invaluable for cutting purposes, as the 

 flowers are small. It is of a deep rich crimson, almost black. This can be treated 

 the same as all other Dahlias, and is quite as easily grown 50 



♦Double Floret Dahlia. Double of a ruby red color. It is peculiar in the filling up of 

 the florets, which instead of being in the nature of tubes or cups are occupied with 

 quills, or as we may term them, replica florets ; a very interesting plant 1 00
