with the eo-operation of the growers, the progress shall last. 
DAISY TURNQUIST I. D. 
(Hulin-Parrella) 
This dahlia originated in the 
northwest is one of the love¬ 
liest and artistic dahlias it has 
ever been our privilege to 
grow. Take a good look at 
the picture, see how beautiful 
it curls and twists. The bush 
is nice and compact and al¬ 
ways covered with plenty of 
rich Rose pink and salmon 
orange blooms. The blooms 
are about 7 to 8 inches. This 
variety has won plenty of 
blue ribbons in the north¬ 
west the past two years and 
incidentally won a Certificate 
of Merit at Storr's, Conn., 
with a score of 85. Daisy 
Turnquist is a dahlia you 
will be proud to show your 
friends and it is fine for 
house decoration and a good 
keeper and very much ad¬ 
mired at our gardens this past 
season. Roots $7.50
