LEIFER’S 1934 PRICE LIST 
FORMAL DECORATIVE DAHLIAS—Continued 
JERSEYS BEAUTY. This Dahlia is still the 
most popular variety all over the world, and 
whether it is in the showroom, cut flower mar¬ 
kets, or the private gardens, it never fails to 
attract more people than any other variety re¬ 
gardless of cost. Easily grown, and I want to 
say that we had as fine flowers of this variety 
without pruning, disbudding, and without fer¬ 
tilization as were exhibited at the Chicago 
World Fair Dahlia Show. The plants and 
stems are perfect in every way, and the color 
is always a pure pink. We keep the price 
very low, so everyone can give it a trial_$ .15 
JERSEYS KING. A good cut flower carmine, 
with good stems. Petals are broad, and of 
good substance _ .20 
JERSEYS MASTERPIECE. An exhibition va¬ 
riety with large flowers of strawberry pink 
suffused with gold at base of florets. Stems are 
strong and stiff. Plant is thrifty_ .50 
JERSEYS TRIUMPH. With exception of Jer¬ 
seys Beauty, we like this variety of Mr. 
Waite’s better than any other of his introduc¬ 
tions. Color is a combination of bright orange 
and copper perfectly blended, and is unusual 
and hard to describe, must be seen to be fully 
appreciated. Form of flower and plant much 
like Jerseys Beauty. An ideal exhibition va¬ 
riety _ .50 
JUDGE MEREAN. An exhibition variety of 
large size, being a perfect blending of water¬ 
melon pink, red, old gold and yellow. This 
variety has been grown by us for many years, 
and always came true to type, but last year, 
our stock of this, broke and reverted to some 
former parentage, and the flowers were of an 
inferior peony type, and of course, useless to 
anyone. We will have new stock of this from 
one of our best growers whose stock is all 
right, and will replace all that were sold last 
year. A splendid variety, and we would not 
care to do without this old standby_ .40 
KENTUCKY. When we first tried this variety 
several years ago, we were not favorably im¬ 
pressed with it, but it has improved every year 
until now it is as hardy and measures up with 
Jerseys Beauty, of which it is a sport, habit 
of both plants and flowers being alike in every 
way, except color, which in this variety is a 
salmon pink with plenty of yellow and gold 
blended in. A wonderful cut flower variety, 
and is here to stay_-_ .35 
KING MIDAS. A very large pure yellow with 
good stems, but for largest flowers, must be 
disbudded _ 50 
KITTY DUNLAP. A medium size flower of 
American Beauty rose color and a very pop¬ 
ular cut flower variety- .20 
LE GROS BETE. A medium size flower and 
plant of very dark red, and used as a cut 
flower _ .15
