OUR INTRODUCTIONS OF 1936 
Last year in addition to the variety Major Edward Bowes we 
offered two other varieties, which we felt were worthy and beautiful. 
The reception these varieties, ELSIE ADELE and BLUE BIZARRRE 
have received has born out our opinion fully. 
Elsie Adele 
Has that natural appeal of feminine youth and 
beauty; it is a perfectly clear, soft, blush LaFrance pink, the spikes 
are tall, always carried erect and graceful, five or more flowers are 
open at one time with 18 or more buds. The plant of this early variety 
is clean and healthy, the bulblets are produced in quantity and germin¬ 
ate well. At the Great Lakes Exposition in Cleveland, visiting florists 
gave unstinted praise to the high quality of this variety as a cut 
flower—its ensenmble and beauty in their estimation are all that could 
be desired.

Blue Bizarre 
Is startlingly attractive. The under color of 
this variety is a light violet-blue, long streaks of medium violet-blue 
overlay much of the flower, these are again overlaid with dark violet- 
blue, very pronounced and effective. The plant is strong and healthy 
and a good producer. Spikes are medium tall with medium large 
sized flowers. The immense interest shown in this variety here in our 
gardens and at the many shows this past season would indicate that 
this variety too would soon be among the popular novelties. The 
flower is all that the name implies.
