Jerseys Beauty 
The Most Popular of Decorative Dahlias 
Jersey’s Beauty with a rating of 87 is undoubtedly the most popular of the Decora¬ 
tive Dahlias. It is especially in favor as a cut flower. The blooms are about 6 inches 
in diameter, borne on stalks over 6 ft. high. 
The color is a beautiful clear pink, ideal for exhibition as well as for home 
decoration. The flowers are of perfect form, borne on long, strong stems. They keep 
exceptionally well. They appear early and there is a continuous succession through a 
long season. 
Jersey’s Beauty is typical of the great group of Formal Decorative Dahlias. 
Flowers belonging to this group have broad, flat and nearly straight rays, arranged 
fairly regularly. The floral rays may be either pointed or rounded; often the outer 
rows are slightly recurved. The Formal Decoratives have been great favorites in the 
show room and Jersey’s Beauty is a great favorite of florists for cut flowers.
