which is deep autumn-orange, or bronzy orange, is a new shade 
in dahlias and certainly a welcome one. Its color is far richer 
than that of any other orange dahlia grown. Growth is excel¬ 
lent, stems long and strong, it is a good keeper, and the blooms 
are large. It is a variety that is well worthy of our full praise. 
Sierra Sunrise was originally billed for introduction last season, 
but was withdrawn from the market with no tubers having 
been released. Stock, however, is still most limited, and we feel 
almost certain that Sierra Sunrise will be sold out before the 
season is over. One of the best dahlias we have ever seen.”

Mr. Salbach saw Sierra Sunrise blooming in our gardens in 
late September, which is late for our dahlias.
