QUALITY:—It is the aim of Pennypack Gardens to introduce dahlias that will 
grow for 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. 
REPUTATION:—Show Record—Pennypack’s new dahlias namely, ‘Whitehall’ 
and ‘Paoli Local” were highly honored in 1949. Won American Home Achieve- 
ment medals, gold medal certificates, best bloom of the entire shows, medal for 
most meritorious display and 54 first prizes in open competition. Garden 
Record—Both ‘“‘Whitehall” and ‘Paoli Local” were certified at official 1949 
American Dahlia Society’s trial garden. 
PRICE:—All Pennypack dahlias are priced right. Had the 1950 introductions, 
won every prize offered in all our shows—they would still carry a $10.00 price 
tag. Policy—high quality, low price. 
RESULTS:—You can expect. Winnings for 1949 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 conditions, does not bear the Pennypack 
label.
