Alice In Wonderland #338 
ALICE IN WONDERLAND #338 (Dahliadel 86), 
ID, 1934, g e, Bloom 8x5, Bush 5 ft. First of 
all, this dahlia is a beautiful shade of soft salmon 
petals delicately edged bright rose. The picture 
can give you only an idea of the distinct new 
form with the full high center and long, pointed 
petals that curve backward to the stem adding 
to its depth. Good habits of growth, but is at 
its best in cool weather. We believe this dahlia 
is destined to become as popular as its name. 
Plants, $3.00
