MARGIE PARRELLA 
The Dahlia, a gold-mine to the Florist Trade 
MARGIE PARRELLA (F. D. Maxwell-Parrella)—In introducing this dahlia we 
are positive of offering one of the best white cut flower variety on the market. 
Blooms will open in full in the hottest days of July and August without being 
bruised or burnt. This variety not only is a prolific bloomer, but also produces 
twice as many blooms than any other commercial dahlia on the market. Size 
of bloom without disbudding, 7 inches or more. Note: Flowers facing, easy 
for packing. Natural stem from 12 to 24 inches. An exceptionally fine foliage 
for a white dahlia. This variety also has a wonderful branching habit. A 
basket of this dahlia at the New York Show, which were cut after four days 
of heavy rain, won the Blue Ribbon over Jersey’s Beauty. This dahlia has 
been tried out in many parts of the country this past season, and we re- 
BEAUTIFUL, and Mr. Dudley in THE FLOWER GROWER. Height of plant, 
ceived very fine reports. This dahlia is on Mr. Johnston’s Honor Roll in HOUSE 
5 to 6 feet. Root $5.00 Plant $2.00
