NOVELTY.— A BEDDING CACTUS DAHLIA. 
'85 
Novelty. — Carters Raynes Park Gem. — Novelty. 
Height 1 ft., very floriferous, Colour a glowing dark scarlet. 
We find this variety succeeds best when planted in pots or very firmly in light soil not too rich in 
character, allowing 2% feet between the plants. When cultivated in rich soil the plants are liable to 
produce a large amount of foliage at the expense of flowers. 
Each plant forms a compact bush, and its large handsome blossoms are thrown well above the 
foliage. If planted out in June a brilliant display will be produced from the middle of August onwards. 
Plants in small 60 pots will be ready for delivery by middle of May. Orders may now be booked. 
Price 2s. each, or 18s. per dozen.
