LOMBARD’S DAHLIA GARDENS 
7 
Rainbow’s End, I. D. —The coloring- of this Dahlia is 
all that the name indicates—the petals are scarlet 
with empire yellow tips and maize yellow reverse 
—a most unusual and beautiful combination. The 
flowering habits are good and the plant is strong, 
healthy and insect-resisting. Scored 82 at Storr’s 
in 1932 and has won first honors wherever exhib¬ 
ited. We recommend Rainbow’s End from every 
standpoint .75 
Ruby Taylor, I. D.— A prize winner from the Pacific 
coast which has met with instant approval wher¬ 
ever grown. The color is carmine and the large 
deep blooms are supported by perfect, long, stiff 
stems. We consider this variety one of the finest 
we grow. Awarded a Certificate at Storr’s in 1932 .75 
Rose Fallon, F. D. —Most wonderful flower of enor¬ 
mous size, held erect on straight, strong stems; this 
magnificent bloom is a beautiful color of deep old 
gold of the finest type .25 
Saladini, F. D. —This is one of the truly outstanding 
Dahlias, its strong points being reliability of bloom, 
profusion and sturdiness of growth. A clear apri¬ 
cot orange. Buckeye Bride is the only variety that 
equals Saladini in cut-flower production .30 
Sanhican’s Queen, F. D. —A Dahlia of unusual color, 
described as honey-dew, which is a blending of 
apricot with a faint blushing of carmine rose, 
deepening towards the center. Stems are abso¬ 
lutely perfect being strong, stiff and canelike.30 
Satan, S. C.—Flaming red with a slight touch of gold 
at the center. The exquisite coloring is at once fas¬ 
cinating, but what formation and stems! The horn¬ 
like petals, so perfectly rolled and incurved, give 
rare form and character to a flower of unusual bril¬ 
liancy. The rugged, almost leafless, stems give the 
impression of being nearly as thick at the top as at 
the base. No Dahlia in existence, we believe, is 
more sensational and spectacular than this giant 
Cactus. Wherever exhibited it becomes the gen¬ 
eral favorite. At New York it was runner up for 
largest Dahlia and it won as best flower at several 
other shows. At Storr’s Official Trail Gardens it 
scored 87 .75 
Shahrazad, I. D. —A most regal Dahlia named for the 
Queen in the Arabian Nights. Color a deep pink. 
Flowers 10 to 12 inches in diameter with great 
depth and splendid substance. Fine, cane-like 
stems. Bush tall and vigorous. Easily one of the 
most outstanding of recent originations.45 
Sinbad of the Sea, F. D. —An extra large, fine flower, 
borne on long stems; very large and full, vivid red. 
Especially fine for cutting. One of the best of the 
red Decorative. A vigorous grower and a very 
free bloomer .45 
Sydney B. Mitchell, F. D. —A very large flower of 
rich, deep velvety red almost black in the center 
shading through carmine to Tyrian rose at the end 
of the petals. Fine stems. Bushes covered with 
blooms. A very rich note in the garden, or in any 
bouquet .25
