Trice, 25c* each, $2*50 per dozen CURIO t Wilmorc Dahlia Specialist HE subject of this illustration originated with me among a lot of seedlings which I planted in 1896. I was at once impressed by its distinct- ively unique formation and color. Another odd characteristic of Curio is that it often blooms in clusters of three. The flower from which this illustration was made was one of a cluster of three, but unfortunately the cluster could not be so arranged that all would show without making an ill-shaped illustra- tion. The plant is an erect, strong grower, with but little foliage aside from its stems. The flower is of medium size and quite rounded in form. Its color is a rich orange bronze, bright and clear, and in this respect is also quite different from all others.
