From Milliken Gardens catalog, 1949: Daniel Webster said of Dartmouth, "It is a small college I know, but still there are those who love it." Belle Brunette is a small flower but it has individuality. Its pattern of redbrown on a primrose background is suggestive of a conventional setting sun. It is intriguing. It is remembered. 2-1/2 ft. $10.00
