LOMBARD’S DAHLIA GARDENS 
5 
Lord of Autumn, I. D.— The color is a rich, deep, 
golden yellow, and the formation is wonderful. 
The long pointed and slightly twisting petals re¬ 
curve till stem is entirely hidden for 6 inches or 
more making the flower resemble a giant Mum. 
The largest Dahlia we ever grew. 1.00 
Margrace, I. D.— Won first in the Informal Decorative 
Seedling class at Cleveland Show as well as 
Sweepstakes for the best seedling. This Dahlia 
is unusual in color and unique in form with good 
high centers. It is a bright scarlet with a tan 
reverse. The petals curl and twist showing the 
reverse. Really excellent stems, strong and heavy .75 
Monmouth Champion, F. D. —This great Dahlia com¬ 
pares favorably with Fort Monmouth, Violet Won¬ 
der, Jane Cowl, Kathleen Norris, and other top 
notchers of recent introduction. It instantly found 
favor with all who saw it in our gardens and the 
show rooms by its great size, and brilliant orange 
flame color that fairly glistens from its own color .30 
Mrs. George Le Boutelier, I. D. —A giant flower, and 
in our opinion, an improvement on Murphy’s Mas¬ 
terpiece, and a very striking and showy plant in 
the garden. Color deep crimson red, the blooms 
are exceptionally large and are held erect on long, 
stiff, almost leafless stems, high and above the 
foliage, self-branching and wide-spreading plant 
with heavy, disease-resisting foliage .50 
Monmouth Sunburst, F. D.—The colors of this beau¬ 
tiful 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 .35 
Man O’ War, F. D. —A fine variety on account of its 
splendid habits, and one of the best keepers among 
the large flowering varieties. Color an ox-blood 
red, with plenty of life, the blooms which are large 
are held erect and facing sideways on long strong 
cane-like stems .50 
Myra Howard, I. D.—Glowing combination of saffron 
and gold with tints of salmon, the entire effect 
being ochraceous orange. Fine form and color. 
Wonderful plant and a thrifty grower producing 
giant blooms on long, rigid stems. A prize winner 
at Eastern shov/s .28 
Minnie Eastman, S. C.—Color, bright flame with 
undershading of deep yellow, ^arge flowers on 
perfect stems. Good grower and excellent for 
exhibition .30 
Mrs. Alfred B. Seal, F. D.—Undoubtedly the largest 
and finest pure, rich, glowing old rose Dahlia ever 
produced. The flowers are huge and of great 
depth and substance and are held proudly erect 
above a fine strong, tall bush, on long, stiff stems .40 
Mrs. I. de ver Warner, F. D.—It is a refined, deep, 
mauve pink, beautifully formed, exquisite shade, 
and acknowledged by all Dahlia experts who have 
had the pleasure of growing it to be one of the 
finest Dahlias ever produced .22
