CLARA CARDER (Kemp, 1936), Dec. 
One of the greatest pink decorative Dahlias we have ever 
grown. Its formation is on the border line between formal and 
informal decorative, and is in a color class by itself, it being 
a beautiful shade of clear Cyclamen pink, the only Dahlia we 
know of this color. The blooms are produced in the greatest 
profusion from early season until cut down by frost. (H. R.)
