WHITE DOUGLAS 
A beautiful rich cream 
colored sport of Mrs. Leon 
Douglas. We have kept the 
name which was given it 
when first found in our field. 
This flower has all the good 
qualities of Douglas, includ¬ 
ing giant spike, and large 
wide open flowers. Color is 
a rich cream with lavender 
throat markings. This va¬ 
riety won all the first prizes 
in the “Cream” class when it 
was shown at the World’s 
Pair in 1934. It has again 
proved its quality and de¬ 
pendability in our gardens 
last summer, and Florists 
who have seen this variety 
ask for it in quantities to fill 
their exclusive cut-flower or¬ 
ders. Each: Large, $2.50; 
Medium, $1.25; Small, 75c; 
Bulblets, 2 for 50c.
