    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Fringed dahlias like this glamorous lavender beauty are called "laciniated" in the US, "fimbriated" in England, but the French say it best: dentelle or lace-work dahlias. They first came into vogue in the '50s, and 'Popular Guest' - with its echoes of Sputnik lamps and starburst Formica - has a mid-century vibe that's enduringly cool.
