Grace Douglas 
American Home Dahlia of distinction. Outstanding Dahlia 
at New York Botanical Gardens. Informal Decorative. It is a 
luscious, clear pink color, deeper pink at high center of flower, 
shading lighter towards tips of petals when matured, about the 
color of the pink pearl rhododendron, very lovely; immense 
size and great depth; easily grown to 12 inches and more by 8 
inches deep. The petals curl and twist, enhancing the beauty of 
the flower. The bushes are about 4 feet high, excellent growth 
and very good stems; a splendid keeper as a cut flower, a very 
prolific bloomer, and very popular. 
Derrill Hart liked it particularly. He wrote me it was very 
fine at the Botanical Gardens, New York. Dr. Howe wrote: 
"It was outstanding there.” From New Jersey, reports were 
fine, emphasizing its fine form and high centers, excellent bush 
growth and stems, and beautiful color and good keeping 
qualities. Roots, $15.00 Net
