The Famous New Dahlia P atrick O’Mara 
The flowers are of the Decorative type, over seven inches across, with 
broad petals beautifully twisted and curled. The color is a revelation. 
Like the glowing splendor of the setting sun, the color of the Patrick 
O'Mara Dahlia runs through the entire gamut of shades of gold; from 
soft canary or silvery gold to the tawny shades of golden bronze. A 
soft salmony pink underlies the golden shades and the whole is overliad 
with a beautiful metallic sheen. The stems, which are long and strong, 
hold the blooms stiffly erect. It shows no tendency of having a weak 
neck. As a-cut flower it has wonderful lasting qualities. 
In naming this Dahlia the introducer has truly paid a noble tribute 
to the memory of Patrick O’Mara, who was associated with our house 
for half a century, and who for many years was a foremost figure in the 
horticultural world, Price, field-grown roots, $1.25 each; $12.00 per 
dozen
