Dahlias of Quality 
1934 Introductions (Continued) 
MONMOUTH QUEEN —F. D. (No. 10-32). This fine light yellow made good all over the 
country the past season, and those who had it in their collection, report it as being 
greatly admired by the many visitors at their gardens. The color effect of this dahlia 
is most pleasing, it being a piric yellow in the center of the flower, with gradation 
of light primrose to creamy yellow rear petals. Flowers are full centered and are held 
facing front, and are 10-12 inches in width by 4-5 inches in depth. Stems are long 
and stiff, holding the flowers high out of the foliage. Plant a robust grower, and good 
root maker. Not subject to insect attacks. 
Divisions each, $6.00; Plants each, $3.00 
MONMOUTH RADIANCE —I. D. (X 100). This wonderfully beautiful dahlia was intro¬ 
duced by us last year. It was the winner of the American Home sweepstakes medal 
at the Camden, N. J., show, in the class for the best new variety not then in com¬ 
merce. In this beautiful flower is presented a color combination of light coral pink, 
with primrose suffusion on rear half of petals, giving the flower a brilliant coral pink 
effect, with deep primrose background, that radiates throughout the entire flower. It 
is beautiful from whatever angle the flower is viewed. Flowers 11 inches and over 
in width, by a depth of 5-/6 inches, are borne on a very tall stately plant 6-7 feet in 
height, with stems that can be cut up to 4 feet in length. Owing to the heavy demand 
for it last season, we had only a few plants left for our own planting, and are unable 
to offer it in roots this year. It is naturally a late bloomer, and should be planted 
early, and be allowed to grow without pinching back. 
Plants only, $3.75 each 
MONMOUTH SUNBURST —F. D. (28-30). The colors of this beautiful dahlia are brilliant 
lemon center with salmon orange background, producing a realistic sunburst effect. 
The flowers face both upward and front on long stiff stems well above the foliage, and 
reach a maximum size of about 9 inches wide and 7 inches in depth. The plant at¬ 
tains to a height of 4% to 5 feet, is many branched, and exceedingly prolific of blooms 
from early to late season. AN HONOR ROLL DAHLIA of much merit. A prime fav¬ 
orite with the many visitors to our gardens the past three years. 
Strong divisions, each $5.00. Plaints, each $2.50 
ORANGE BRILLIANT —I. D. (No. 19- 
34). A golden orange of excep¬ 
tional brilliancy. The flower can be 
easily grown to 11 inches in diam¬ 
eter, and the depth is always just 
right to properly balance the 
blooms, whether grown to large ex¬ 
hibition size or intermediate size 
for house decoration or for florists’ 
use. The plant attains to a height 
of 6 feet and over, and has the 
same habit as Jersey’s Beauty, 
flower stems are long, stiff, and 
hold the flower high out of the 
foliage. Blooms can be cut with 
stems up to 4 feet long. A re¬ 
markably good keeper when cut. 
Divisions each, $7.50; 
Plants each, $3.75 
ORIENTAL GLORY —I. D. (Swartz). A mid-western dahlia that does remarkably well in 
that section of) the country. At a distance the color seems to be brilliant, dazzling 
balls of deep orange. Closer examination reveals the color to be Cadmium Orange over¬ 
laid with glowing scarlet sheen, center and reverse heavily shaded scarlet. Flowers 
are 8-10 inches in diameter, and are of sufficient depth to properly balance the bloom. 
Plant a hardy rugged grower, with many branches, and its numerous flowers are held 
well out of the foliage on stiff stems. 
Divisions each, $5.00. Plants, each $2.50 
ORINGO— I. D. (32-19). This is one of the most unique and distinctive dahlias in color 
and formation we have seen in many years. The color effect is a gradation of golden 
orange to rich salmon orange from front to rear petals of flower, and the petals are 
curled and twisted in a manner to bring out its brilliant colors much more effective 
than is usually noticeable in a flat petaled flower. The flowers attain to 10 to 12 
inches across by 5 to 6 inches in depth, and are held on stiff stems well above the 
foliage. Plant grows to medium height, well branched and a prolific bloomer. A splen¬ 
did exhibition variety. Stock very limited.
