NEW DECORATIVE DAHLIAS 



Countess of Pembroke. Pink, sea green at base 



of petal.

This splendid new class has become known in 

 France as Rustique and in England as Decorative 

 Dahlias, the last name having been adopted by the 

 few specialists growing them in this country. 



The flowers are of large size, usually quite 

 double, but of less dense and much freer form than 

 those of the Large Show Class; the long, usually 

 fluted petals giving the flowers an artistic, loose 

 and graceful form hitherto unattained in Dahlias. 



Our list comprises all the best shades of color 

 and only sorts of genuine merit.
