BROOMALL 
THE DAHLIA SENSATION OF ALL TIME 
Sll ^ e 1 _ we ^^oduced this creation at Atlantic City in 1930, where it won over 
every Dahlia both old and new for the largest and best bloom in the show also 
the Achievement Medal and the cash prize of $100.00, it has stood the test of time. 
No other originator has equaled it nor even approached it as an PYhihiHnn 
ahlia. It has met and defeated about every known Dahlia of this period of four 
>eais, such great Dahlias as Jane Cowl, Murphy’s Masterpiece, Eagle Rock Fantasy 
atan ’ Loi ’ d ot ^ he Autumn , Palo Alto, yes, and hundreds of other nationally known 
cieations have had to step aside to make room for this SUPER-DAHLIA. 
by this 1 wonderDahUa! ^ ^ ab ° Ut the victories that lmve been achieved 
Just a tew winnings for 1934 at the Rockville Centre, L. I., show, where the 
glowers seek the world over to try and beat the other fellow, and they sure did 
dig up some great Dahlias the past season, not only the best of the old but the 
cream of 1934 introductions and many of the best to be released in 1935 They were 
all the same to Margaret and such judges as Derrill W. Hart of Honor Roll fame 
and Leonard Barron, nationally known horticulture expert, and other equally known 
experts declared Margaret E. Broomall the best bloom in the show and along with 
it awarded the Achievement Medal for the best exhibit. Dr. Preas, the grower and 
exhibitor, writes, “It is unbeatable.” 
It happened that on the very same day, Sept. 14, 1934, Margaret was selected 
as the best bloom in the Boston, Mass., annual show. At a New York exhibition it 
won the piize for best bloom in show for the second time, competing with the latest 
varieties each year. 
On file at the Patent Office at Washington, D. C., there are sworn statements 
made by America’s most select group of Dahlia experts. Here are a few extracts 
from them: 
Derrill W. Hart: “Because of color, size, beauty and form, wins the largest and 
most perfect bloom prizes.” 
Dr. Marshall A. Howe: “An outstanding white, such as this is, has been a desi- 
rderatum for years.” 
George W. Fraser, President American Dahlia Society: “A model for other new 
varieties to be judged by.’ - 
Prof. Roland H. Patch: “The most outstanding Dahlia in the Garden.” Refering 
to it growing at Storr Trial Garden. 
W. L. W. Darnell: “Margaret E. Broomall is the best Dahlia ever produced.” 
Thomas Leavitt, Secretary National Association Commercial Dahlia Growers: “I 
consider its production a great horticultural feat.” 
J. A. Kemp: “In my opinion there is no other Dahlia like it, nor none as good.” 
William B. Sweeney, Trial Garden Committee: “It produced the largest blooms, 
combining beauty of petalage, perfect form, utterly lacking in coarseness, the writer 
has ever seen.” 
Conrad Frey: “I dare say, this is the best Dahila that I have ever seen.” 
It is a great tribute to these experts that after four years have elapsed since 
these statements were made, their predictions have proven true, as Margaret E. 
Broomall is still the world’s greatest Dahlia, not by heresay but in actual compe¬ 
tition under the world’s most competent judges. We could go on telling the reader 
about this great big white, with perfect stems, and fine growing habits, but the 
words of the above experts should be more convincing than pages of what we could 
write..
