VIN WELL BRIDESMAID (S. C. 
Blamer-Parrella-Hulin) — This 
lovely dahlia received an “Award 
of Honor” at the Georgia Trial 
Ground. We are using descrip¬ 
tion received from the trial 
ground, which we believe de¬ 
scribes the flower to a “T.” This 
is a very distinctive old rose, 
suffused and tipped yellow, semi¬ 
cactus variety. Form is very 
attractive as the petals curl and 
twist, showing reverse color. 
Blooms average 8x5 good sub¬ 
stance, on strong stems, 6" to 
8" above upper leaves. Prolific 
bloomer, plant vigorous, medium 
tall, foliage dark green and 
insect resisting. Received an 
“Award of Honor” at the Dahlia 
Society of Georgia for distinctive 
color and formation, in addition 
to other good qualities.
