BLUE PEACOCK 90 * + ttt Exh. A blue 
violet with conspicuous, velvety blue 
blotch set in cream. Florets wide open 
and well arranged. Makes the longest 
flowerhead and spike of any in this group. 
We broke the ice for it with three grand 
spikes, Ohio ’33, thus helping to cause a 
demand entirely beyond the amount of 
bulbs in existence. Scarcer this year than 
last. LI.00 M.75 S.60 Bits .15

Outclassed the popular Veilchenblau (win¬ 
ner, A.G.S. previous five years) as soon 
as shown. Voted first dark violet, A.G.S., 
C.G.S., N.E.G.S., F.C.C., Haarlem. Our 
1st, Ohio-Mah. ’34. Excellent bloomer 
from smaller sizes. This is the first year 
popularly priced and one of the biggest 
values in our whole list, if grown before it 
becomes common in every garden, as it 
is sure to do. L.20(100,16.00) M.15(100,

ORANGE BUTTERFLY 95 — fft Sm. Dec. 
The only really small flowered variety in 
the entire list. They average about 2 
inches. But, it holds 10 or more open on a 
long flowerhead, which is very unusual 
for this type. The color is a rich, glowing, 
bronzy orange. And, unlike most of the 
small flowered sorts, the substance of the 
florets is excellent, though there may be 
some crooking of the stem in extremely 
hot weather. A.M. British R.H.S. ’32.
