Laree. rounded flowers, showing only 
solid or self colors, but may frequently 
have shadings of color. 
To distinguish between a Show and 
Fancy variety, apply this rule: 
If the tip of the petal is lighter than 
the ground color, it is variegated. If the 
tip is darker than the ground color, it 
is a Show variety. 
SINGLE 
THE COLLARETTE 
This is a single form, with a frill 
around the disk, and is found in many 
colors. 
STote: Several other distinctive classes 
are used by professional growers, but 
their distinctions are of a technical 
rather than a useful nature. The fore- 
going classification is sufflcient for all 
practical purposes.

and may be regular or irregular in for- 
mation. Usually of large size, carrying 
all colors known to the other types. Pop- 
ular for cutting purposes.

description. The perfect type has but 
eight petals.
