Andenken an Wilhelm Lindenschmit, (Holland) A grand 
Dahlia of immense size. Color, soft deep clear Rose, 
centre of petals shaded to bright yellow. The blooms 
are held facing sideways on long, strong cane like 
stems, well above the tall growing plant.Root, $1.50 
Anna Benedict, I.D., (American) Easily the best dark 
red, and certainly one of the finest all-around dahlias 
ever produced. One of the very best keepers, does not 
fade, grows to good size on fine long stems, and its 
color is strikingly rich. In addition, it starts 
blooming early, but continues to give a good number of 
normal sized blooms till the very end of the season. 
This item was written in November, with Anna Benedict 
being the only dahlia left to give us a good supply of 
normal blooms......Root, 75d
