Classification and Chart 219 



made note of anything unusual; whether the 

 plant is tall or short or bushy, and whether the 

 blooms are pendent or upright. 



Any plants without notes in this column are of 

 moderate height, with flowers of usual stem and 

 habit. 



Although I always use Ridgeway's Colour 

 Chart whenever listing colours for my own use, 

 and I strongly recommend it above all others for 

 amateurs, it is impossible to use in this list, for 

 the reason that colours in dahlias vary so much 

 with soil, climate, and even the different sea- 

 sons.
