J. K. Alexander , E. Bridgewater , Massachusetts E. Bridgewater Dahlia Gardens 
Duplex Dahlias 
This is a much needed classification of a favorite type of Dahlias, now listed by some as Peony-flowered 
Dahlias and by others as Singles. The flowers are semi-double, with center almost exposed at the opening of the 
bud, with petals in more than one row, more than twelve petals, and not over three rows. Petals are long or 
flat, or broad and rounded, not noticeably twisted and curied. They are very free-flowering, being ideal for cut- 
flowers.
