MURPHY’S MASTERPIECE, I. D. (87) 
This dahlia has everything that a good dahlia should have 
to attain the popularity this one has. It has size and 
then some. It has color, all its own, dark red, shading 
towards a deep garnet. It will not burn. It has a heavy 
thick foliage that insects keep away from. The blossoms 
which grow to very large size and depth with very little 
encouragement are held proudly erect, facing up, on the 
best of stiff cane-like stems, well above the stocky and 
robust growing bush. This variety was outstanding the 
past year and possibly won more prizes than any other 
dahlia. Must be seen growing to be appreciated. A strik¬ 
ing and spectacular dahlia.

MYRA HOWARD, I. D. (87) 
The color of this marvelous dahlia is a glowing combina¬ 
tion of saffron yellow and gold with tints of salmon. A 
wonderful plant and thrifty grower, producing giant 
blooms freely on long rigid stems. If you are after the 
big fellows and a prize winner, you should not miss this 
one. It won the Home Achievement medal as the best 
seedling at the New York Show in 1931. If you want a 
sensation in your garden and a winner for the show 
room, here it is.

OMAR KHAYYAM, F. D. (88) 
A much admired giant. Color, a Chinese red at the base 
of petals and shading to a bright orange and tipped 
lighter, giving the huge blooms a wonderful soft color 
effect. The flowers which can easily be grown over 10 
inches in width are held erect facing sideways, well above 
the foliage on cane-like stems that can be cut from 4 to 6 
feet in length. This variety has won many prizes and is 
good as a cut or exhibition flower.
