Nursery contributed plant descriptions

More people asked us to find 'Jane Cowl' than any other lost dahlia - and when we finally tracked it down, we understood why. It's a big, gorgeous dahlia, with undulating petals of buff, bronze, and gold, like the tresses of a goddess - or actress Jane Cowl (1883-1950), who was once "the most beautiful woman on the American stage."
