KEMP’S RADIANT BEAUTY—I. D. (No. 42-36). Almost every 
dahlia fan knows the grand bi-colored variety “Freckles” we 
introduced season of 1937. This fine variety is a seedling 
of Freckles, and is a more beautiful dahlia than its parent.

on the petals more vivid than the seed parent. The inner 
half of the petals is a rich lemon yellow, while the outer half 
is light martius yellow, the whole flower is marked with lines 
and dots of vivid scarlet distributed just right to produce 
the most pleasing effect. The flowers are very large, and 
can be easily grown up to 12 inches and over in diameter, 
has good depth, and are held well out of the foliage on stiff 
stems. Plant is of same habit as its parent,, but slightly 
shorter in growth. Is wide spreading and very prolific of

LOIS WALCHER—I. D. (Walcher). This sensational bi-colored 
dahlia was awarded six American Home Achievement medals 
season of 1938. No other dahlia within our recollection has 
ever been given so many distinguished awards in a single 
year. 
The color is deep amaranth or pansy purple with the outer 
one-third of' the petals clear white. There is no blending of 
the two colors, each breaking off sharply into the other. 
Stems are ideal, carrying the flower facing. It is an early, 
prolific and continuous bloomer until frost. Good keeper and 
good shipper.
