Foreword 
QUALITY:—It is the aim of Pennypack Gardens to :ntroduce 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 disease free 
foundation stock. ~ : 
REPUTATION:—Show Record—Pennypack new dahlias were highly honored 
in 1954. Ned Seymour, Amberlite, Miss P. R. R. and Firelight won a total of 
10 American Home Achievement Medals and 14 American Dahlia Society Seed- 
ling Sweepstake Awards. Other winnings include the famous “Flower Grower” 
trophy, “Best of Show,” “Best Seedling” trophy and many blue ribbons. Win- 
ning at shows is a habit for Pennypack dahlias. 
PRICE:—AIl] Pennypack dahlias are priced right. Comparison shows my prices 
most reasonable. Policy—high quality, low price. 
RESULTS:—-You can expect. Winnings for 1954 are surely impressive, but the 
final success is your satisfaction. A program involving testing both in the field 
and exhib:tion gardens has been carefully conducted. Any dahlia failing to grow 
properly under ordinary field conditions, does not bear the Pennypack label.
