CLARA CARDER (Kemp, 1936), (Dec.) 
One of the greatest pink decorative Dahlias we have 
ever grown. Its formation is on the border line be¬

class by itself, it being a beautiful shade of clear

staging in the shows, and for decorative purposes. The 
blooms are produced in the greatest profusion from 
early season until cut down by frost, and can be 
grown to 10 to 12 inches without forcing. First prize
