(A DAHLIA WORTHY OF THE NAME) Colvin-Derring-Do 
An informal Decorative Dahlia with petals blended light-orange- 
yellow and coral-pink that twist and curl from an ideal center. 
A flower 8-11 inches (and without forcing) on a stem and neck 
that is perfection beyond improvement. 
This dahlia has:—Coir, size color-stability, stem, neck, large- 
leaf, good bloomer, good root maker, good propagator and not 
"tricky” to grow. In short a grand dahlia without “Ballyhoo." 
NOTE: This is the seedling that caused the crowd to gather and 
try to buy at the N. Y. Show in 1932, but limited stock prevent¬ 
ed its sale. It’s regretable that no picture was taken of the 50 
bloom display of it in the Brooklyn Show last October. Suffice to 
state that they were like the one checked ( V) in the display-cut 
of the 1933 folder.
