BLUE ADMIRAL (Christ). Deep violet blue with violet plume. Of the more moderate 
priced varieties, this is perhaps the best dark “blue”. Very vigorous in growth with 
tall spikes having about six 5-inch florets of good texture open. In color not as blue 
as Pelegrina but more attractive to some people. Good propagator. L. 60c each, 
10 for $4.00; M. 35c each, 10 for $2.50; S. 25c each, 10 for $1.75; Bits. 10 for 40c, 
100 for $3.00. 
BLUE DANUBE (Pf.) A giant in growth and a fine flower in the lighter shades. Clear 
light lavender blue with darker feather. About six 5-inch blooms open on a very tall 
spike. Facing usually good. Good propagator. M. 40c for 1C; S. 10 for 25c; Bits. 
100 for 25c. 
BLUE DELIGHT (Douglas). Very rich shade of deep violet blue on uniform spikes. 
Seven 4-inch blooms open on a rather short straight spike. Plad this the height and 
vigor of some of the other “blues” it would be quite outstanding. Rather hard to 
germinate the bulblets. L. 4Cc each; M. 25c each; Bits. 10 for 40c. 
BLUE HAROLD (Pf.) Not as attractive in color as some but so early in blooming and 
of such good s'ze as to recommend it for early planting. Medium in height and fair 
in texture of the florets. Five blooms 5 inches across open. Good propagator. 
L. 50c each, 10 for $3.00; M. 30c each, 10 for $2.00; S. 20c each, 10 for $1.25; Bits. 
10 for 40c. 
BLUE PEACOCK (Salbach). Medium violet blue with red and white throat markings. 
Among the most attractive in shade and one of the nearest to blue. A good flower 
with medium tall straight spikes having about six 5-inch florets open with a good 
number of buds yet to open. A good propagator. Stock much in demand. L 50c each, 
10 for $3.50; M. 3Cc each, 10 for $2.00; S. 20c each, 10 for $1.50; Bits. 10 for 40c, 
100 for $3.00. 
BLUE ROYALE (Vaughan). Rich violet blue with narrow cream feather on lower petals. 
One of the richest and bluest in color but flowers only medium in size, about 4 inches. 
Tall spikes with about six open florets of good texture. This has given me some good 
seedlings. L. 10 for $2.00; Bits. 10 for 15c. 
BLUE TRIUMPHATOR (Pf.) Very light lavender violet with deeper violet feather. The 
largest of the blues and a splendid flower although of a coloring so light that many 
have been disappointed in it. About six flowers 6 V 3 inches across of splendid 
rounded form. Medium in substance but yet good for such a large flower. Somewhat 
difficult to germinate and does not grow well some seasons. L. 10 for 70c; M. 10 for 
40c; Bits. 100 for 30c. 
*CANYON VIOLET (Vaughan). A very tall deep violet blue with somewhat darker 
plume. More nearly a self color in effect than most of this class. A rich velvety flower 
with about five 4^-inch flowers open. A poor propagator with me. L. $1.60 each; 
M. $1.00 each; Bits. 15c each. 
CELESTIAL QUEEN (Christ). Light violet with darker blotch. A good flower of good 
size with straight spikes of good length. Five or six 4 ^-inch florets of good texture 
open. Good bulblet producer but sometimes fails to germinate well. L. 80c each, 
10 for $6.00; M. 50c each, 10 for $3.50; S. 30th each, 10 for $2.00; Bits. 10 for 50c, 
100 for $3.00. 
*CH AM PLAIN (Palmer). Beautiful light violet blue with inconspicuous throat mark¬ 
ings. Much on the order of Heavenly Blue but bluer and a better grower. Occasion¬ 
ally has a few misplaced florets. Tall spikes with six or seven 4%-inch blooms open. 
Fair propagator. L. 60c each; M. 40c each; S. 25c each; Bits. 10 for 50c. 
HEAVENLY BLUE (Pf.) Too well known to need much description. Light lavender 
blue with good spikes having six or eight 4-inch flowers open. Bulbs subject to 
disease but a good propagator. L. 10 for 40c. 
KEMPENFELDT (Vickers). Still another on the Heavenly Blue order but much larger 
and bluer. Six 5%-inch. flowers open on tall spikes. Frequently has faulty facing of 
blooms, but good otherwise. Fine increaser. L. 10 for $2.00; M. 10 for $1.20; S. 10 for* 
60c; Bits. 100 for 50c. 
LIBELLE (Pf.) A good clear medium blue violet with deeper violet feather. Up to six 
5-inch florets open. Medium in height and rather badly inclined to split up, throwing 
three or four spikes from large bulbs. Facing somewhat upright. Good producer of 
bulblets, somewhat difficult to germinate. M. 10 for 70c; S. 10 for 30c; Bits. 100 for 40c.
