LEIFER’S 1934 PRICE LIST 
FORMAL DECORATIVE DAHLIAS—Continued 
CUBAN GIANT. A large deep crimson shaded 
maroon. Some class it as a ball type, but 
comes decorative with us_$ .15 
DELICE. Medium size clear pink variety used 
by florists for make up work. Stems are good 
and its early blooming habit, makes it a de¬ 
sirable cut flower Dahlia__15 
DAD. A mammoth brilliant red; very popular.. .40 
D. M. MOORE. A very dark red, almost black, 
on medium height plant. Very prolific, and 
good for home cutting; medium size_ .15 
DR. JOHN H. CARMAN. A Dahlia you will 
like. Massive broad-petaled tyrian rose flower, 
tipped petunia and silver on stiff heavy stems. 
Very free flowering, and will stand partial 
shade, which very few Dahlias will do. A 
good keeper when cut- .50 
EL DORADO. A large golden yellow, deepen¬ 
ing to orange at center of flowers. A very 
prolific flowering plant with fine stems. Many 
growers have discarded this variety as roots 
are not very good keepers; have grown it 
many years and like it fine_ .25 
EARL WILLIAMS. See description of Nobilis. 
EASTERN STAR. A large and deep flower of 
saffron yellow, with old gold shadings. Plant 
is tall and thrifty with erect and strong stems. 
A reliable large yellow_ .50 
ELIZA CLARK BULL. A large white of good 
form and a free bloomer. Plant not as tall as 
Ida Perkins_ .50 
ELITE GLORY. I believe this dazzling red 
Dahlia to be the most reliable of all large 
pure reds for our climate. Has all desirable 
qualities, flowers very large, good strong stems 
holding flowers erect at all times, healthy 
vigorous plant, and a good producer through¬ 
out the season. Will make more very large 
flowers than any other red that we have ever 
grown _ .40 
ELLINOR VANDERVEER. A large, early flow¬ 
ering variety on medium size bush, but very 
prolific bloomer, and one of the standard cut 
flower Dahlias everywhere. Color is bright 
lilac rose pink, resembles Mrs. Ide Ver Warner, 
but plant is not so tall- .15 
FAITH SLOCOMBE. Pure apricot with salmon 
suffusion, shading to yellow at center. Flowers 
come both in formal and informal shape, and 
look good either way. Very free flowering 
throughout the season, and fine for home cut¬ 
ting. Roots, splendid keepers_ .15 
FIREBURST. Rightly named, as it is a flaming 
red, and good for home cutting, but stems too 
weak for commercial use. Plants are of me¬ 
dium height - .15 
FLORENCE FINGER. A reliable lavender pink 
on good stems, and much used as a cut flower .15 
FORDHOOK BRIDESMAID. A very large amar¬ 
anth pink having a yellowish cast in the cen¬ 
ter. This Dahlia was admired very much by 
visitors here last fall_ .30
