fairly broad at base, but decidedly pointed, or even sharp at 
tips, and are sickle-shaped and raking. Color, lovely tints of 
salmon and pink overlaying yellow, with yellow at center. 
Exhibition variety, from Engtand.

ditional richness to the blooms. Good stems hold the flowers 
erect at all times. Bush growth is vigorous. Listed in the

JOSEPH B. LANKTREE —I.D., 1942 (Ballego) 
Bright red without shadings; officially ‘‘turkey red.’’ This great 
dahlia was produced by Mr. Bernard Dunn. It won the Achieve- 
ment Medal at Alameda last year, and judged both in the 
showroom and garden it was also awarded a $500.00 cash 
prize as the best new variety to originate in Alameda County 
through a 3-year period. All three blooms in the Achievement 
Medal entry were 13 to 14 inches in diameter by 7 to 8 inches 
in depth and it grew to similar size the past season. We be- 
lieve it is one of the very best bright red decorative to date. 
With ordinary care it will provide many large blooms that are 
useful for all purposes.

resistant and is a heavy and continuous bloomer. The flowers 
are facing to erect. This dahlia is a great advancement in 
its color class.
