NOVELTIES AND VARIETIES OF SPECIAL MERIT, 1896, 1897. Some of these varieties have been offered by us in previous lists, but being very valuable and little known, we again offer them as possessing special merits. Amaranthus Superbus. — Coleus Leaved Amaranthus. A valuable acquisition in the line of new decorative plants. It grows to the height of from 3 to 5 feet, and is clothed with a profusion of large, cordate, crumpled leaves; dark crimson in color, with a broad light green margin. Per pkt, 25c. Carnation. — Early Double Snow White. Said to be as hardy and vigorous as the old "Grenadin," but more bushy and compact. It is an early and abundant bloomer, and the flowers produced are perfectly double and deliciously fragrant. This new variety promises to become very popular. Per pkt, 50c. California Poppy. Rose Cardinal. A charming new variety of California Poppy bearing large rose colored flowers. Per pkt., 15c. Dahlia, Cactus. Though this class of Dahlias are known here they are deserving of more extensive cultivation. They produce flowers of remarkable beauty, with the petals gracefully curved and quilled, and loosely arranged, and are less formal than the old double varieties. They are now very popular in England and Europe, where they have received much attention and development, which has resulted in the production of a marvelous variety, both in form and color. The strain we are offering is obtained from one of the most prominent European growers and we believe it to be unsurpassed for beauty and variety of color. Per pkt., 25c. Delphinium Cardinale. [Scarlet Larkspur.) A beautiful native perennial species growing from 5 t
