Pendleton, Ore., Oct. 14, 19 19. /-I caA not close without again speaking of my 
dahlia "Lavendera" which, this season, tlVew up three stems to the height of ten 
feet and produced blooms of tfefe most graceful and refined type, eight inches in 
diameter, from July to October. This dah\ia simply faded everything else seen 
here in the dahlia line. It was still blooming away as grandly as ever when cut 
down by frost. Your single dahlia, "DazzMng," could have been well named 
"Poinsettia" from its strikjhg resemblance to. that well known decorative plant. 
The price of "Lavendera" is a sheer absurdity. * It should sell at $5, not a cent less.
