value due to its enormous propagation power, but a glad 
whose color will cause it to be popular for several years 
yet. Glorious rich, warm, shrimp pink with apricot shading; 
opens up to 10 on fine tall spike; has won COUNTLESS 
awards. Probably Picardy will be the parent of some of 
the world’s most valuable seedlings; I know for sure that 
jt has already fathered for Dr. Scheer some of the finest 
things yet to be produced by man; these will, I am sure, 
displace their parent, the unforgettable PICARDY. 
PINK CHAMPION—(Zimmer)—Ali—A variety as yet 
little known; winner of Champion Seedling at the Indiana 
show several years ago (1932); it has been restricted in 
sales; color is rich, warm, deep salmon; opens up to 8 on 
fine spike; self color; a sure winner in deep pink classes. 
PURE GOLD*—Dehnoff)—C5—In my estimation the most 
beautifully colored yellow. Janes of Wisconsin says: “What 
a beauty! Imagine it with a Milford in a basket!” Others 
who have seen it confirm our belief that it has a great 
commercial future; opens 5; very tall; medium S. 
POLAR ICE*—(Pfitzer)—B1—Nice large pure white with 
round florets; not as many open as Star of Bethlehem but 
will open about 6; looks like some possibilities for commer¬ 
cial use; fair propagator; good grower; good keeper, and 
a fine color. 
PINNACLE—(Arenius)—B21—Not a good color with me; 
somewhat streaked light rose pink; however, is fairly nice 
spike with quite a few open; probably a fair commercial 
as it propagates good. 
PENSACOLA*—(Christ)—B18—This rich scarlet red is 
absolutely the finest color in reds yet been shown in 
America; opens 7; medium to tall height; good grower; 
propagates fine. J. D. Long says: “Very attractive. Best 
color in class.” Others say the color is a dream. I think so. 
REVERIE*—(Palmer)—B13—Mighty fine commercial glad; 
light pink with cream throat; opens 7 on tall spike; 
straight; good propagator; good keeper; good all around. 
ROSE LADY*—(Christ)—B3G—Has been a consistent win¬ 
der in Australian shows; a wonderful shade of rich mahog¬ 
any rose overlaid with smoky effect; up to 10 open, and 
6 inches across, on fine heavy spike. If interested in good
