WATCHUNG SMOKE (Smith, 1932), I. D. —A giant big 
flower and the most unusual color among the new 
dahlias at New York. The name is really unfair, for the 
color is not cloudy, as it suggests, but a very clear and 
attractive pink flushed w ith silvery gray. The reverse 
of the petals shows a rose-red, giving the flower a fine 
warmth of color. The petals are arranged a bit regu¬ 
larly for an informal classification, but those at the 
back of the flower show a decided roll. (H. R.) 
Plants only, $1.50
