LORD OF AUTUMN (1. D.), ‘“Almy.’’ Bush 414 ft. The 
color is a deep golden yellow. The flowers grow to an 
enormous size and, without forcing, we had blooms the 
past season that measured over 13 inches across and 
nearly 9 inches in depth on long, stiff stems that held 
the flowers high above the foliage. The formation is 
wonderful, as the long petals recurve until the stem is 
hidden from view for 6 or 8.inches. This dahlia is a 
GIANT. It never fades or burns.2....2. 2 Root
