G ROW this new triple Honor Roll — Certificate 
of Merit Dahlia. Oakleigh Monarch is all that 
the name implies — a big, broad-petaled formal type 
that has created a sensation wherever grown and 
exhibited. 
It is truly a beautiful color — a clear, brilliant 
cerise red — quite unlike any other introduction of 
recent years, and the keeping qualities, for such a 
large Dahlia, are remarkable. By actual test, blooms 
of Oakleigh Monarch have kept for seven to ten days 
in perfect condition. 
Oakleigh Monarch scored 86.9 at A. D. S. Trial 
Grounds, East Lansing, Mich., in 1935, and was one 
of the most outstanding new varieties on trial. We 
quote herewith part of official Trial Grounds report: 
"Flowering habit very good. Stems, straight and 
strong. Substance, excellent. Keeping qualities, splen¬ 
did, long lasting. Habit of plant, heavy, vigorous 
growth, thick densely branching. Health, excellent. 
Diameter of flowers, 8-11 inches; depth, 41^-7 
inches. Height of plant, 4-5 feet. One of the best.” 
In addition to an outstanding record at East 
Lansing Trial Ground, this remarkable new Dahlia 
was grown and tested by eleven unbiased and critical 
growers in various sections of the country who unani¬ 
mously reported it a distinct success in every respect. 
Because of its ideal stems, rugged plant growth and 
perfect form, size and color, a splendid future is pre¬ 
dicted for the new Monarch of all Dahlias.

we assure you that the possibilities for show or exhi¬ 
bition purposes are unlimited. Be the first in your
