Dark pansy blue which holds its 
color in the field perfectly. The 
From Ne-w York came the followinq: — "I test out about all the new glads to find the 
best varieties to grow for the commercial florists' market. I thought this dry summer that 
Lausanne was about the best yellow that I have found and that Margaret Peter the best 
blotched variety."
