Delightful Dahlias for 1941 

Some say the Dahlia is for men— 
For it all hombres have a yen. 
They’ve worked on color and on size, 
So now they have a big surprise. 

Types of Dahlia. 
The CACTUS has pointed petals, often the 
petals rolled or twisted. If petals too broad 
for Cactus, yet not broad enough for Decora- 
tive, then we call this the HYBRID CACTUS 
type. The DECORATIVE type has broad, flat 
petals and many of them. The SHOW type 
has quilled petals, making a ball-shaped or 
nearly ball-shaped blossom.
