♦CANBERRA (Errey) The largest pure yel¬ 
low I have seen. Exhibition type, named for 
the capital of Australia. 
CARA MIA (Miller) 40-3-5. Clear distinct 
shade of pink with lilac feather. Very lovely 
ruffled prim grand. One of the earliest. Long 
stems. 
CAPT. BOYNTON (Boynton) 40-4%-4. 
Light lavender with purple plume over cream 
white. Early midseason. Long stems, an ideal 
cut flower. 
*CAPT. COURAGEOUS (Ellis) 27-4%-4. 
Fiery deep scarlet generally flaked deeper. 
CARDINAL PRINCE (Kunderd) 34-4%-7. 
Soft cardinal red without marking. Very love¬ 
ly shade. Early and lightly ruffled. 
CARMELITA (Diener) 34-4-7. This seems 
impossible to describe, might say it is a blend 
of salmon, slate and violet with deeper flak¬ 
ing, inconspicuous markings. Often comes 
poorly placed but is real pretty. 
CARMEN SYLVIA (Prestgard) 36-3%-6. 
Pure white with short violet line. Midseason. 
Lovely form, fine spike, one of the best white 
commercials. 
CAROLUS CLUSIUS (Velthuys) 36-3%-7. 
Light pink. Very pale lilac feather over ivory. 
Extra good second early pink for most any 
purpose. 
CATHERINE COLEMAN (Coleman) 42-4-8. 
Salmon pink with small violet feather. Late. 
Has a huge flower head, often too heavy for 
the long willowy stems. 
*CERISA (Levey) 30-3-5. Rather an unus¬ 
ual shade of salmon rose with deep rose red 
line. Early and lightly ruffled. Haven’t had 
this long enough to say how good it is. 
CHALLENGER (Kunderd) 30-5-5. A large 
pure deep red. A very lovely red, unfortun¬ 
ately lacking vigor. 
CHAS. DICKENS (Pfitzer) 42-4-6. Brilliant 
rose purple, dark velvety blotch. Very fine, 
generally considered the best of this color. 
CHAS. F. FAIRBANKS (Kunderd) 36-3%- 
5. Brilliant scarlet and red self. Early mid¬ 
season. Makes a showy spike. 
CHATEAU THIERRY (Vos) 30-4y 2 -3. Bril¬ 
liant salmon red, red plume edged ivory 
white. Bulbs small. 
*COM. KOEHL (Pfitzer) 42-6-7. A glorious 
shade of deep red, seems to be lighted from 
beneath with a scarlet luster. Now considered 
by many to be the best red on the market. 
Makes some grand spikes. No. 14. 
COPPER BRONZE (Kunderd) 36-4-5. Cop¬ 
pery orange smoked a bronzy violet. Orange 
red veining. Early prim grand. Very unusual 
and most artistic, well liked. 
CORAL (Rooney) 34-3%-7. Light coral 
pink blotched ivory white. Light and showy, 
perfect form, fine for mass planting or cutting. 
CORAL PRIM (Salbach) 36-3-6. Bright 
salmon orange, deep red line, early prim. 
Very bright. 
♦CORUNNA 30-31/2-3. Early salmon red 
with almost black blotch narrowly bordered 
with white. Of value as a novelty only. 
CRACKER JACK 32-3y 2 -5. Dark red heav¬ 
ily flaked blackish red, cream blotch heavily 
peppered blackish red. Very vigorous and a 
splendid cut flower. 
CRIMSON GLOW (Betscher) 48-4-4. Bright 
glowing crimson, feather just a little deeper. I 
don’t believe that there is a more generally 
satisfactory red glad to be had, old or new. 
♦CRINKLES (Kunderd) 30-2%-5. Deep 
rose, deeper lines, upper petal a much lighter 
shade. Heavily ruffled. Quite small but dis¬ 
tinct. 
CYGNUS (Kunderd) 30-3-3. Soft creamy 
salmon pink, yellow blotch, red lines. Very 
early ruffled prim. Not as well appreciated as 
it should be. 
DIANA (Zeestraten) 36-4-6. Deep crimson 
self, very much like Crimson Glow but ear¬ 
lier. A standard early red for cutting. 
DOROTHY McKIBBEN (McKibben) 32-3- 
6. Pink heavily flaked deep rose marked with 
lines of brownish red. Very early. Rather a 
novelty but real pretty. 
*DOROTHY WOOD (Ellis) 32-3%-8. Salm¬ 
on orange, cream blotch, red hair-lines. Very 
early, fades somewhat and often grows stubby. 
DORRITT (Kunderd) 30-4y 2 -6. Pinkish lav¬ 
ender, rose purple feather. An occasional 
spike comes striped. Real pretty and very vig¬ 
orous. So fine I wonder that it is not more 
generally grown. 
DR. CHRIST MARTZ (Kunderd) An un¬ 
usual shade of light red. Heavy rose line, 
lightly ruffled. 
DR. ELKINS (Kunderd) 40-4-5. Blush 
white with bluish violet blotch. Sport of Mrs. 
Pendleton. 
DR. F. E. BENNETT (Diener) 36-4-7. 
House-afire red marked with a touch of 
white. Midseason, doesn’t seem to do well 
here but is fine most everywhere else. No. 8. 
DR. MOODY (Kinyon) 36-4-8. Orchid lav¬ 
ender penciled deeper on lower petals. Very 
fine, this is the best lavender for hot climates. 
Early midseason. No. 29. 
*DR. NELSON SHOOK (Kunderd) 42-3%- 
6. Very deep rose, almost red, darker bar. 
Ruffled, massive, has never done much for 
me. 
*DUCHESS OF YORK (Dames) 36-3-9. 
Royal purple shaded violet, very deep blotch, 
short yellow line. Had this but a little more 
vigor it would be hard to beat. 
EARLY ONE 27-3%-4. Rose pink, creamy 
throat dusted red, often comes slightly smoky. 
Very early, dainty and lovely. Might be called 
a baby. 
♦EARLY PHIPPS (Ellis) 36-3%-8. Very 
similar to Phipps, more of a salmon pink and 
more marking, much earlier. Often crooks. 
EARLY SNOWFLAKE 38-3-6. White some¬ 
times tinted lilac. Rather small but very early 
and has distinctive form. 
EARLY SUNRISE (Velthuys) 28-3%-7. 
Flame red marked with a dash of gold, some¬ 
times flakes. Very early for so large and fine 
a variety. 
EBONY 32-4-5. Deep coppery red, deeper 
plume, very unusual shade, almost irrides- 
cent. Ruffled, midseason. 
E. B. WILLIAMSON (Kunderd) 36-3-4. 
Light rose purple, cream throat heavily pep¬ 
pered purple. Very early prim. Different 
color from any other. Nice cut, fine with other 
flowers.
