MAUVE MINK (Hall, '61) hS. 36" $1.50 



This is pretty much a self— a bewitching shade of rosy lilac and a 

 hint of blue with a red-orange beard. Note the opulence of the 

 ruffled standards and the breadth of the spreading falls. Flowers are

A uniform shade of bright rose in both standards and falls. Even the 

 style arms are of this same rose tint. The hafts carry a contrasting 

 wash of rose-purple and this in turn is lit with a very thick, fiery 

 deep orange-red beard. The falls are especially wide and flaring, the

 stems. HM, '71. See page 10.

 drapery fabric. Nicely branched. See page 37. 



MILESTONE (Plough, '65) EML. 36" $4.00 



A combination of butterscotch yellow standards and dahlia purple
