Prize Winning Dahlias 
AIDA (F. D.) Dahlia fanciers who like dark ones sure will like this one. Color is 
a deep mahogany red with a velvety maroon cast. Roots $.25 
ARELDA LLOYD (1. D.) A sport of Jane Cowl having the same habit of growth 
in every way but of a clear golden yellow color throughout. The highest scoring, and 
easily the most outstanding variety, in the 1933 Storrs trial gardens. If you like Cowl 
you will like this one. Roots $1.50 
AMELIA EARHART (S. C.) A 1933 Honor Roll winner which has proved its 
worth. Coral in color and a producer of many 12 inch blooms. One of the real out¬ 
standing new varieties. Roots $1.00 
EAGLE ROCK FANTASY (1. D.) This giant variety has carried out every claim 
made for it as it has been a prize winner from coast to coast. The color is an unusual 
shade of orchid or mallow pink. Roots $1.00 
FORT MONMOUTH (1. D.) This has undoubtedly won more prizes in the largest 
bloom class than any other variety grown. The color is rich wine red with an underly¬ 
ing tone of brilliant crimson maroon, and a slight bluish violet tone at the tips of petals. 
The stems are long and stiff, flowers do not burn and last well when cut. Roots 3 - $1.00 
JANE COWL (1. D.) This giant flower is easily the most outstanding variety of 
the present generation. It is far too well known to require any lengthy description. 
However, for the benefit of any beginners, we will say that it is a glistening bronzy 
buff of ideal habits, and by all means try it. Roots $.35 3 for $.75 
LORD OF AUTUMN (F. D.) This was easily the most outstanding of all the 1934 
introductions and a winner wherever shown on the exhibition table. The color is clear 
deep yellow and the size will compare with the largest. It has a long stem and is just 
about as ideal growing a variety as we have today. Roots $3.00 
MARY HELEN (Ball) We were very much pleased with the reception given this 
dahlia. We felt that there was need for a good yellow Ball dahlia, and the satisfaction 
with which this has been received has justified this opinion. Mary Helen is the largest 
type of Ball dahlia with very fine erect stems. The color is clear glistening yellow. 
Roots $.25

tense scarlet suffused orange, with gold striped reverse. Roots $.25

orange. Roots $.50

crimson imaginable. The bushes are tall with a tough healthy foliage. Roots $.35
