Freesias 
(For shipment in July and August, 1935, subject to crop.) 
JOAN MANDA 
(The Lily-Flowered Freesia) 
Per 12 100 1,000 
There is no doubt that this Freesia is an 
acquisition to Floriculture. The grace¬ 
ful lily-like flowers of pure white are 
borne on long stems. When well 
grown these flowers measure two and 
one-half to three inches across the wide 
open petals. They resemble the lily 
because of the thick, durable flow T ers 
that give them a charming and dis¬ 
tinctive effect. 
Joan Manda was one of the first 
Freesias to be patented, and after many 
trials we believe it to be the largest 
white Freesia ever introduced.$2.00 $15.00 $140.00
