The more you do for the dahlia in the growing season, the more the dahlia 
will do for you in the blooming season. 
The 
PARRELLA 
DAHLIA GARDENS 
presents the following introductions from our Gardens and 
other Growers, for the Season of 1951. 
SEE FLOWER GROWER HONOR ROLL 
OTILIE ZOUREK “A” T. D. White (Zourek-Parrella)—This is really white. It 
received an A.D.S. Certificate at Storrs in 1948. This dahlia was very much 
admired at Farmingdale Test Garden in 1950. It is a dahlia of exceptional 
merit. Size is 9 or 10 inches x 5 to 6 inches. It is possibly nearer to Straits 
White than most, but foliage is like that of the Real Glory. It has a 6 foot 
robust bush and good growing habits.

ARTHUR GODFREY (Pittman-Dahliadel)—This is the dahlia exciting all the 
Ohs and Ahs for its immense size and wish you could hear the comments. 
Another redhead surely pleased the owner of the name too. It is a beautiful 
Orient red with orange or buff shadings. It grew 13% inches at Rutgers 
and we believe it is the largest Formal Decorative ever grown.
