ANEMONE DAHLIAS

A fine bedding or border dahlia; free, early and 
profuse. This creamy white flower differs from the 
Single type by having small quilled petals of the 
same color covering the entire center. Plants, .50 
CROIX DU SUD (Cayeaux 85), Bloom 3 <4, Bush 3

outer petals are bright red, while the pin cushion¬ 
like center is a yellow suffused red. We heartily

Oahliadel 1939 Gold Medal Display 
The picture below is one of our typical 1939 unde¬ 
feated Exhibits, which won First in the largest Com¬ 
mercial Class as well as the A. D. S. Gold Medal 
(Supreme Award) at the New York Flower Show of 
the American Dahlia Society. We also won Gold 
Medal Certificate at the W^ilmington, Delaware Show; 
a Gold Medal Certificate at the Annual Exhibition of 
the Camden Dahlia and Horticultural Society; and a 
Gold Medal Certificate at the New York World’s 
Fair Dahlia Show. This Dahlia exhibit was held at 
the main building of “Gardens on Parade” and was 
staged under ideal conditions as the building was ad¬ 
mirably adapted for such a display and was notewor¬ 
thy for its accessibility and facilities. We are reliably 
informed elaborate changes are to be made in the 
Gardens, and the lighting improved in the building. 
Here is your opportunity to kill two birds with one 
stone, as the American Dahlia Society has made ar¬ 
rangements to hold their 1940 Show there, and you 
can see the World’s Fair and an outstanding Dahlia 
Show by one visit to New York. Add to this the 
dates September 20, 21, 22, when we have the finest 
weather of the year, what greater inducements could 
be offered? We are certain that dahlia lovers every¬ 
where will not miss this double opportunity. Dahliadel 
Nurseries is 3 hours from the World’s Fair.
