Stocks 
Our forcing stocks have been highly commended this 
past season. Silver Lilac continues to be the most popular 
color, but returns have averaged higher on the white Santa 
Maria than all other colors. Our introductions of the last 
season have been generally approved, and we believe that 
Rose Carmine and Violet will become standard sorts among 
the column type.
