Seedling of La Fiesta crossed with Lard of Autumn, 
inheriting the good qualities of both parents. The 
ground color is a lemon-chrome, striped, blotched and 
speckled bright scarlet, irregularly distributed over the 
yellow ground color. Blooms of this spectacular Dahlia 
were grown up to 14 inches in width, and correspand- 
ingly great depth the past season, and was many times 
first p-ize winner in the bi-color el-sses in the nearby 
1936 Shows. The plant is a beautiful grower, attain¬ 
ing to a height of about 5 feet, is well branched but 
never crowded, and requires practically no disbranch¬ 
ing. Foliage good, and stands almost any degree of 
summer heat without injury. Tremendously prolific of 
large blooms, which are held on stiff stems eight to 
ten inches above the foliage. As an exhibit'on and cut 
flower it is par excellent. People like it for cut blooms, 
and is a good keeper when cut. Good root maker.

season.
