Dark velvety maroon shading to almost black at the centre; an early and free bloomer. 50 cts. each. King of the Autlimn. This is a great Dahlia, both as a cut flower as well as for garden decoration.

In color it is one of the most effective and pleasing autumnal tints, a lumi> nous salmon-pink passing to a golden suffused buff near the edges, which is particularly pleasing under artificial light. 50 cts. each.
