COLOSSAL PINK 19 " 104 - Decorative (see natural color reproduction above). Tl lis is the variety 
that attracted so much attention at the Wanamaker exhibitions and on our grounds. 
A most wonderful new variety that has all the good qualities of Colossal Peace, with none of its faults. It is 
fully as large in diameter, but several times as deep; of massive build, always full to the center and will last 
longer on the plant than any other variety. Color clear pink, tinting lighter at tips of petals and at center. Plant 
dwarf, 3 to 4 ft. high. A strong vigorous grower, of branching habit, and an early and profuse bloomer. For exhibition 
it is a winner — immense size, fine form, pure color and keeping qualities. An ideal garden plant. The past two years 
have shown Colossal Pink to be undoubtedly the best pink decorative for the garden. It is very early and the plants 
are just covered with flowers and continue in bloom until killed by frost. As a commercial cut flower it is ideal, as the 
dwarf plants branch freely and produce the flowers on long, slender, stiff stems; while the color is that ideal pink with 
the lighter tints that is so popular. In addition, the flowers are wonderful keepers, and always full to the center. 
This should do wonderfully well on the Pacific Coast, where so many show centers. As an exhibition flower, it is 
really at its best, as the flowers arc very full with high centers and so deep they are really massive, but the delicate 
and chaste coloring relieves it of any suspicion of grossness. All in all, it is just about the ideal pink decorative. We 
grow it extensively for all purposes. Strong roots §2.50 each ; 3 for $6.00; 12 for $22.00.
