The Three Greeks ALPHA 1. BETTA 2. GAMMA 3. 
All have a summer coloring of deep olive green, each 
distinct in character, quite hairy and richly marked in 
pinkish and redish brown and deep rich maroon, Alpha 
has narrow leaves, Betta broader leaves and is more 
compact, Gamma has broad leaves and is more richly 
colored, longer beards, more open rosettes, we consider 
it the best of the three. 50 cts. each. 
LOWN’S Seedling No. 60 : 2 - 3 inches* This variety

LOWN’S Glorified Seedling No. 60: 3-4 inches. This
