vigor and keeps green and soft all season and 
is a prolific bloomer of extra size flowers, that 
keep well as cut flowers (as do all of my in¬ 
troductions). Stems are long and stiff and 
carry flowers at a proper angle, many facing 
up. The color is superb but will fade slightly 
in extremely hot weather, unless protected 
from the sun. Recommended at Georgia Ex¬ 
periment Station. Div. $3; Plants $1.50. 
SUPREME MONARCH. I. D. An immense, 
deep, brilliant red with a reverse of pearly 
white — always — which shows on face as 
petals twist slightly. Will average larger 
than Elite Glory (its seed parent), and much 
more prolific, and more beautiful in forma¬ 
tion. The giant blooms are held erect, and 
facing on stems, like cane, that are 2 to 3 feet 
long. Mentioned as one of the outstanding 
varieties at Bronx Botanical Gardens 1935.

and over. The plant is a very strong vigor¬
