MRS. HELEN K. JOHNSON —A dark yellow with slight tints of bronze; 
petals incurved, but somewhat irregular in their arrangement. Erect 
stems and good foliage; 5 ft. high from April planting. Select bud 
latter portion August. Blooms 8 inches mature by October 28. I con¬ 
sider this the very best early yellow of the recent introductions. 
SEMINOLE CHIEF —An exhibition chestnut bronze* reflex petals that are 
unusually long; very dependable for an exhibition; has produced 9-inch 
blooms; matures the end of October from September 1st bud. 
COLUMBUS DISPATCH— A very vigorous deep yellow variety that will 
attain a height of 5 feet from June 1st planting, and mature an 8-inch 
incurved bloom by the end of October. Best bud around Sept. 1st. 
With me a real good early yellow and easy to handle. 
TRIUMPH —With me the largest and earliest of the exhibition anemone 
varieties. It may be disbudded. In color it is a pleasing shade of 
golden bronze. Matures here the last few days of October. With 
me it handled easilj r . Eight inch bloom. 
NEW BUCKINGHAM —Introduced as' an improved Mrs. Buckingham, and 
with me it certainly justified all claims. It is a single of deep pink 
shade, and the habit of growth is much more vigorous than the old 
Mrs. Buckngham. Also with me it is more prolific. Should not be 
disbudded—or at least only partially so. Matures here around Oct. 30. 
POCKETT’S CRIMSON —A magnificant two-toned incurved bloom of 
exhibition size. Inside of petals crimson and outside golden. Take 
bud last week of August to obtain bloom around Nov. 1st. An earlier 
bud here has less color. 
NAGIRROC —Probably the finest exhibition bronze yet introduced. It is 
reflexed with long petals. Semi-dwarf in growth, but admirably suited 
for exhibition purposes. Best bud middle of August. Blooms' 10 in¬ 
ches in diameter, mature last few days of October. 
QUEEN MARY— By far the best of the “whorled” types. I have never 
seen but few large varietie s with every petal slightly “curled”, and this 
is the best of the lot. It is a large white bloom with a slight cream 
tint throughout. It is a good grower, with straight stiff stem. It 
blooms here early in November and is excellent when disbudded. 
MR. ALLEN —Extra large shaggy bloom, golden salmon in tone, with a 
cream reverse; petals reflex and are decidedly curled and twisted. 
Take late crown bud and bloom will mature early November. A very 
tall grower. 
CHEROKEE —A tall growing and easily handled bronze exhibition. The 
bloom is 1 large and the petals are rather loosely incurved. There seems 
to be some rose mixed in with the bronze coloring. A bud taken 
the last week of August will produce excellent bloom the first few 
days in November. 
MRS. E. KERSHAW —This is a reddish bronze exhibition that is very vig¬ 
orous both in foliage and stem. The flowers are incurved, of largest 
size, and the lining of the petals is- a somewhat lighter shade than the 
outside. A bud the third week in August will produce bloom about 
November 5th. 
THE MELBA —No kin to the single variety MELBA, as this is a lemon- 
vellow sport from LOUISA POCKETT. Why it was given such 
a similar name I don’t know. With me it is similar to YELLOW 
POCKETT, and makes a fine exhibition. Select crown bud near end 
of August and you will get a huge bloom the first week of November.
