NEW DECORATIVE DAHLIAS. 



This splendid new class has become known in France as Rustiqite and in England as Decorative Dahlias. 



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.
