 hairs on the reverse of the florets. This hair-like growth is shown to best

advantage where the florets are incurved. See Fig. 35. 



Rcflexcd The flowers should be perfectly 

 circular in outline, without a trace of thin- 

 ness in the center, hemispheroidal and with 

 broad, overlapping florets. See Fig. 36. 



Large Anemones The characteristics are 

 large size, high, neatly formed centers and 

 regularly arranged florets, one quilled and 

 forming the center or disc, the other flat 

 and horizontally arranged, forming the bor- 

 der or ray. See Fig. 37. 



Japanese Anemones These are remark- 

 able for their large size and fantastic form. 

 The disc is more or less regular in outline,, 

 while the ray florets vary in length, breadth 

 and arrangement. They may be narrow and twisted, broad and curled, 

 or droop, forming a fringe in some instances. 



Pompons Small blooms, dwarf growth and small leaves distinguish- 

 the true Pompons. The blooms are some- 

 what flat or nearly globular, averaging I 1 /!' 

 inches in diameter ; neat, compact with short, 

 flat, fluted florets. See Fig. 38. 



Pompon Anemones These, in style of 

 growth and size, are similar to the Pompons. 

 They are really small flowered Anemones, 

 having a center or disc of quilled and more 

 or less regularly arranged ray florets. See 

 Fig. 39. 



Single These may be any size and form, 

 but should not have more than a double 

 row of ray florets and arranged sufficiently
