POMPON DAHLIAS 
The popularity of the Pompon type of Dahlias is increasing by leaps 
and bounds. This is due no doubt to its adaptability to any form of 
decorative arrangements and its ease of culture, as they will succeed 
where the larger varieties will fail. 
We are pleased to mention that Ailing’s Poms were awarded the 
prize at the 1935 A. D. S. exhibition for the best arrangement of £5 
or more blooms in the commercial classes.
