type, of a scarlet pink color; excellent stem on long 
upright branches starting from near ground; height 
of plant, 3 to 4 feet; a very early and continuous 
bloomer. Winner at Cleveland as best keeper, also a

Royal Purchase (C.) "Nunneviller” 1936. Here is an in¬ 
curved cactus that attains immense size. The bloom is 
full and deep and grows high out of the bush on long, 
straight stems. The color is a deep straw yellow with 
outer petals suffused with pink. The petals twist and 
turn, giving the bloom a shaggy appearance. The bush 
is four to five feet high, an early bloomer, is clean 
growing and resists insects. Prominent judges who 
saw this variety growing the past season say it is a 
knockout and a rival to our America’s Sweetheart.
