Our 1937 Introduction — MARY TALLMADGE 
GOLDEN ECLIPSE (F. D.) The originators have most aptly described 
this in calling it a fool proof variety. The clear-cut appearance of 
the flower immediately appeals. It is a clear golden yellow shading 
to a warm salmon or flesh color at center. A vigorous grower to a 
height of 7 feet. Exhibition blooms may be cut with extremely long 
stems. A certificate of merit and a two-time Honor Roll variety. 
Roots $ .50 
GOLDEN STANDARD (Cactus) A fine new variety of clean outstand¬ 
ing appearance. Good Cactus form and the blooms, while carried at 
right angles on the stems, always look you right in the face. The 
color is buff shaded to amber and gold. Roots $1.50 Plants $ .75 
GOLDEN LIGHT (F. D.) One of our 1935 introductions. The unusual 
markings and colors of this variety always attract attention. The 
ground color is canary yellow edged and more or less marked and 
splashed carmine. All habits are good, long erect stem and a fine 
clean grower. Size about 8 inches under ordinary conditions. 
Roots $1.00 Plants $ .50 
GRACE CURLING (I. D.) A glorious decorative of great size and im¬ 
posing in both form and color. It is orchid lavender shading to white 
at base with something of a silvery overcast. An imported variety 
which will be grown here for a long time. Roots $ .50 
GRANDEE (I. D.) An extremely large bloom but it must be carefully 
handled to bring it out of the foliage. The color is a peculiar com¬ 
bination of mahogany, bronze and yellow. 
Roots $2.00 Plants $ .75

spectacular. The color is a combination of orange and reddish bronze.
