1934 MASTICK INTRODUCTION 
*ROBIN ADAIR (SC—ID). Winner of American Home 
Achievement Medal, 1932, in Portland, Oregon, at the 
show of the Columbia Valley Dahlia Society, the only 
time it has been in competition. An immense bloom, in 
depth as well as width, and the only one of Mr. Mastick’s 
introductions he considered the superior of Marmion. Its 
color a deep empire yellow, with glistening sheen which 
fairly shimmers in sunlight, with reddish bronze shadings 
on reverse of florets and on the tightly closed center. Opens 
as an Informal Decorative, but as the season advances be¬ 
comes a perfect Semi Cactus. Flowers and foliage are 
immune from ravages of insects. Stems are strong and 
upright, and the sturdy bushes of medium height and dark 
leathery foliage are covered with large blooms of perfect 
form from mid-season until frost.$10.00

exquisite orchid coloring, originated in Washington, which 
has created a sensation wherever seen, winning first award 
in every class entered. Plants are thrifty and the long 
stems are cane-like, holding the blooms erect, looking up¬

sonally, we counted six blue ribbons on this variety. A
