Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated November 10, 1950 reads, "Growing chrysanthemums is the hobby of Mrs. Bea Bentley, of 4527 Tujunga Ave., in North Hollywood. Her garden is a riot of color at the present time with 'mums' in every color and form. All of them she grew from slips which she planted for the first time two years ago. Her green thumb is certainly evidenced by the lavish display of flowers she now has."
