Gem of tlie Dwarfs. — “ Of Bodding Dahlias, a variety which is to he called ‘Gem 
of the Dwarfs,’ and which is in the hands of Mr. Dean, of Shipley, appeal's likely 
to be an acqnisition in its way. It is a crimson red tipped with white, and is 
said to be the dwarfest bedding variety yet seen, the plants never exceeding, and 
seldom attaining so much as 18 inches in height. The variety has proved con- 
stant to this habit for three seasons, and is described as a most profuse bloomer, 
looking amazingly bright and showy in a bed. The blooms we have seen lead us to 
believe that it really deserves this good character .”— from Gardeners'
