SYLVIA JOHNSON f.d. (Franklin Gardens) Bloom 
D x A Bush 45% 
This dahlia gives a wealth of compact sunshine yel- 
low bloom, early and late. Those we saw at Franklin 
Gardens had been cut heavily all season and still the 
patch was loaded with flowers. The petals are round 
and lay over each other like fish scales, rounding back 
almost to the long, strong stem. This is a new dahlia 
and one we believe will make a place for itself... . .$5.00

mature petals are very wide, long and slightly ruffled.

suffused with suggestions of coppery pink around the

If you are more interested in colorful blooms and plenty 
of them rather than in growing named varieties, we 
recommend these collections. You can depend on the 
dahlias included. They are our very good varieties 
but are from extra and odd lots and we save time by 
not naming them for you. No two alike.
