per 100.

ing, rather narrow petals. Fine for exhibition or 
commercial. 3'A feet. November 10. Crown bud.

ones produce nearly white flowers. 3)4 feet high.

Take bud August 15 to 20.

from Ivory.

point, of the very early whites. Bench it at least 
as early as June 1, for fine blooms.

1906; color a splendid scarlet-crimson; unusually

Reine Wilhelmine, 1906—Large, pure pink, of 
dahlia-like form, but loosely arranged; tone of color 
very beautiful; terminal bud recommended. $5 per

ularity, and deservedly so; very large, when well 
done. 3 feet. October 20. 
Souv. d’C’tesse Reille —The most striking of the 
Pins varieties; no exhibitor can afford to be without 
it. A very large bloom, with long, drooping, twist¬

silver; curling tips of white; very odd. August 20 
bud. $10 per 100.

Pockett’s very best. Florets broad and thick and 
regularly reflexed till only the face of each shows.

Japanese incurved; a most beautifully formed flower 
of a striking color. The base of the petals is an in¬

the tips. A strong, free and healthy grower, equally 
valuable as an exhibition or a commercial variety. 
$5 per 100. 
San Souci, 1906 — An enormous bronzy red and 
gold; mammoth in size, fine spreading form; first- 
rate for exhibition. $10 per 100.

ber 5 and later; can be spaced 6x8 inches; take

first or second crown. The terminal bud brings a 
brittle stem, breaking frequently at the first shoul¬ 
der. Timothy is still on top. 
Xeno— Form of Ivory. Extra fine, dwarf pink; 
invaluable for late cutting. Late November. Ter¬ 
minal bud. $4 per 100. 
Yellow Mrs. Jones — (See Mrs. G. F. Baer.) 
Yellow Eaton — Bright yellow sport from Tim¬ 
othy Eaton. Especially valuable as the best in its 
color to follow Appleton. Foliage very beautiful; 
stem first-rate, and quite strong enough to hold up 
the monster blooms, which do not show the coarse¬ 
ness sometimes attributed to Eaton. For every¬ 
body's use, and for commercial purposes as well as 
for show, it is strictly A No. 1. Use second crown 
bud. 
V. Morel— Still very popular among reflexing 
pinks. $4 per 100. 
W. R. Church— 3 feet. Midseason. Second 
crown. Japanese incurved. Deep rosy crimson, 
with bronze reverse and greenish-gold tips; the 
color is quite unique and charming. The petals are 
rather short, and when they reflex (as they do 
mostly), it is strikingly distinct and beautiful. The 
general color effect is claret-crimson of velvety sur¬ 
face. Makes a grand bush plant. Flower very 
massive. $10 per 100. 
W. Duckham— 4/ feet. Early midseason. Any 
bud after August 4. Color beautiful, the form 
grand; it is very lasting either on or off the plant, 
an easy doer, perfecting a very large per cent of 
blooms 7 inches across, on stiff, well-foliaged stems. 
W. H. Chadwick — Magnificent variety in both 
form and color, and unsurpassed in size. White or 
blush. 4 feet. Very late midseason. Terminal bud. 
$4 per 100.

type; very large; pearl-pink disc of wide open flor¬ 
ets, enclosed in beautiful ray petals; enormous size.

phur; center florets wide and showy; foliage ex-
