FOREWORD 
It is the aim of Pennypack Gardens to introduce good dahlias that will grow fo: 
you so as to brighten your garden or produce show winners. While much emphasis 
is placed on creative work of developing superior strains of new dahlias, most 
responsibility is given to the maintaining of sound foundation stock. 
Pennypack dahlias were highly honored in 1947 and received much praise in Hon- 
or Rolls. Won two American Home Achievement Medals and many other first 
prizes. 
Winnings for 1947 are surely impressive, but the final success is your satisfaction. 
A program involving testing both in the field and exhibition gardens, has been 
carefully conducted. Any dahlia failing to grow properly under ordinary field con- 
ditions, does not bear the Pennypack label. .
