blooms full, good depth and full centers.

out shading. This Dahlia’s only fault is 
that stems are wiry and not strong 
enough to hold its blooms erect. The 
public has demanded that this Dahlia 
be put on the market because of its un¬ 
usual beauty. It won two first prizes 
and one second as the best undissemin¬
