RADIANT BEAUTY (1939) 
KEMP’S RADIANT BEAUTY~I. D. (No. 42-36). This outstanding 
variety is a seedling of our well known variety ‘‘FRECKLES,’’ 
and is more beautiful than its parent. The yellow backgrcund 
is brighter, and the Scarlet markings on the petals more vivid 
than the seed parent. Inner half of the petals is a rich Lemon 
Yellow, while the outer half is a light maritus yellow. The entire 
flower is marked with lines and dots of vivid scarlet, distributed 
just right to produce the most pleasing effect. Blooms are very 
large, and can easily be grown up to 12 inches and over in 
diameter, has good depth, and are held well out of the foliage 
on stiff stems. Plant is of medium height, is wide spreading and 
very prolific of large exhibition blooms from early to late season.

JESSIE MILLER~—I. D. (Kemp, 1940). This beautiful Orchid Pink 
Dahlia is a seedling of Murphy's Masterpiece crossed with the 
white variety Ida Perkins. Blooms have about the same forma- 
tion as its seed parent, and average about 10 inches across under 
ordinary garden culture, but by liberal feeding can be easily 
pushed up to 12 inches and over. Blooms are held high out of 
the foliage on rigid stems. Plant habit is almost an exact dupli- 
cate of Murphy’s Masterpiece, but is a much better root maker 
and a good keeper in storage. 
A prize winning variety that is mighty hard to beat in its color 
class
