OUR 1936 INTRODUCTIONS 
GOLDEN SWEEPSTAKE 
All of our introductions for this season have been very 
carefully tested and selected, and we are somewhat like a 
man who has a stable of race horses, we could not enter 
them all in the same race for the same high prize for all 
could not win, so they were entered in the different shows in 
the undiseminated classes and had plenty of competition, so 
we are proud of our winners. Size of blooms and height of 
plants given are from field grown stock with no forcing. 
Sorry we cannot release our Dream Girl until next season, 
but it is a fine variety you will want to grow. Look for 
it and our other 1937 winners for next year. 
Silverwing is another of our future introductions that is 
a very wonderful white you will want.

ton State Show at Tacoma, August 31st, 1935. Size of 
blooms 11x6 inches. Plants 5 feet tall. Color is a very 
pleasing golden buff tinted with apricot at center. Wavy, 
recurving petals, which curl backwards to the stem, mak¬ 
ing a very deep bloom like a huge Chrysanthemum. Long, 
strong stems always hold the giant blooms well above the 
foliage. Good habits and insect resisting foliage. This 
variety won the only Achievement Medal offered by the 
Washington Society in 1935 and has won other prizes 
while in the seedling classes, and is on the most out¬ 
standing 1935 Honor Rolls. Stock limited, order early

♦HAPPINESS (F. D.) —Another of our Prize Winners that 
is outstanding. Size of blooms 10x4 inches . Height of 
Plants 4 feet. A very beautiful strawberry pink or per¬ 
haps best described as bright Begonia rose, distinct zone 
of lemon yellow at base of petals, reverse silvery pink. 
Petals folding forward showing the reverse of petals 
making a most attractive color combination that is also 
very new. Blooms are much the same form as “Marvel¬ 
ous”. Long strong stems which hold the blooms erect 
above the foliage. A fine Dahlia with good habits. We had 
a fine report on this one from the midwest.
