POMPON CACTUS-SHAPED DOUBLE DAHLIA. 
500. CANNELLS' GEM—An Award of Merit. Many prefer and appreciate the ordinary 
Pompons in contrast to the large show flowers, and in this we have the beginning of a class of small- 
-flowered Cactus ( see engraving). The artist has not sketched the flowers to the best advantage ; 
however, it gives a good idea. The flowers are freely produced, small and neat, of a soft red shaded 
with orange; bushy habit; a charming introduction. See illustration, page 78. 2s. 6d.

of a beautiful clear amber-chestnut shade, a much deeper colour at base of florets, full size flowers ;
