They all flower very freely and are borne on long, strong stems, making excellent material for cutting as well as for garden decoration. Camille Frachon. Entirely distinct; in color, an intense glistening aniline-red deepening to a rich garnet, which forms a much rayed halo around the yellow disc. The entire flower is overlaid with a silvery sheen, which intensifies its coloring giving it a richness difficult to describe. 75 cts. each. Drum Major. One of the largest of the Peony flowered type which under ordinary field culture attains a size of over 8 inches; in color, it is one of the most brilliant, a rich fierj'- red which is intensified by a lemon-yellow centre with which the petals are also more or less tipped and marked; early and stands out most prominently in the garden. $ each. Hampton Court. One of the best; a bold flower of good form, of a bright mauve-pink. 35 cts. each. Louis Aureau. A wonderfully fine, very large, satiny cilron-yellow with apricot-orange suffusion, very free-flowering on long stiff stems. $ each. Mme. Coissard. To us this is the most artistic and graceful Dahlia of this type yet introduced; its flowers are large, composed of incurving shell-like petals; these are of brilliant French purple or carmine-crimson, freely marked, shaded and suffused with white. 50 cts. each. Mondscheibe. Large canary-yellow, very free-flowering and attractive. 50 cts. each. Paulette Digard. Very large flowers of a light sulphur-yellow with rosy-rcil suffusion; very free. $ each. The Mahdi. A very large fancy Peony of good form, of a rich blood-red mottled and streaked with creamy-white and yello
