RRONZE UNAKA 
Those growers who value Unaka will wel¬ 
come its sport which is a lively shade of color; 
coming by October 10th makes it valuable. 
$3 per dozen; $20 per 100. 
tfCSr* YELLOW ADVANCE 
The Yellow Advance is a sport, identical with 
the parent except in color which is bright yel¬ 
low; this will prove a real boon to commercial 
cut flower growers. 
$3 per dozen; $20 per 100. 
BRONZE BUCKINGHAM 
With many commercial growers, the only 
single variety found profitable is Mrs. Bucking¬ 
ham, on account of its earliness and its staying 
qualities; the sport is an exact duplicate, except 
that it is a brilliant coppery rosy-bronze, quite 
startling in tone. 
$3 per dozen; $20 per 100. 
CONNIE DICK 
Has been styled the “Yellow Doty”—identical 
with the Dotys except that it is a clear glowing 
yellow; this variety, also, will meet a warm re¬ 
ception, as the trade was anxious for this very 
thing—a yellow to complete the Doty family. 
$3 per dozen ; $20 per 100.
