INTRODUCTIONS OF 1932 
ARLYN—The outer petals show a slight bronzy cast while the center of the 
flower is a deep yellow approaching orange. Produces fine upright sprays; is 
very productive and one of the best late pompons. Flowers 2 inches in diameter. 
Height, 3 feet. Matures November 15. 
BRONZE USONA—This new sport has the general habit and flowering period 
of the parent. It is several shades darker than the upper surface of the petals of 
Frank Wilcox or might be termed a bronzy orange. It is several shades darker 
than November Bronze; about the shade of the upper surface of the petals of 
Legal Tender, possibly a shade lighter and has not the yellow reverse. It is more 
a self-colored pompon. We heartily recommend this variety to those desiring an 
orange bronze to be in perfection for Thanksgiving and later. 
RED WINGS—This we believe is the best red we have produced in this sec¬ 
tion. While it is inclined to present a dark brown hue its other qualities warrant 
us in sending it out. Nice, upright growth producing wonderful sprays and as 
it matures from November 15 to 20 comes just right for Thanksgiving when the 
darker shades are in demand. Flowers are 1 y 2 inches in diameter. Height, 3 feet. 
Plants from 2*4 inch pots: $0.30 each, $2.50 per ten, $20.00 per hundred. 
Not less than 5 of a variety at ten; 25 at hundred rate.
