While some of these are comparatively recent introductions the majority are sorts vehich we have been growing for a number of years, but to whichj we have been unable to give the prominence which they deserved, due to the fact that tliey are either difficult or slow to propagate, and as a result the demand has exceeded the supply. We have now succeeded in working up a fair stock, and take this opportunity to bring them to your notice, feeling certain that every- one who plants them will, the same as we do, x appreciate the great merit of each individual variety. ATTRACTION (Hybrid Cactus) A beautiful Dahlia that is greatly admired. The flowers, which measure fully 6 inches in diameter, are composed of gracefully arranged <^ curled or twisted petals of a lively yet soft silvery mauve rose, with white suffusion. 75 cts. each. BRKAK 0» DAY (Cactus) A good-sized flower with a full, high centre with more or less curved and twisted petals, intermingled with the flatter ones, forming a most attractive, graceful flower. In color, a clear sulphur-yellow, shading to sulphur-white at the tips, the entire flower illuminated by a satiny sheen; early and free-flowering. $ each. n r^- n rf.
