1938 TRADE LIST 
In issuing our Wholesale List for 1938 we wish to 
thank our many friends and customers for past favors 
and the nice letters which we have received and in 
making our selection for our present list we believe 
we have selected the best of the 1938 varieties as well 
as adding the best of the 1937 varieties which we over¬ 
looked last season. 
We are releasing for 1939 the following Blue Ribbon 
winners: 
Spirit of Autumn (ID). A seedling of Lady Myra 
Ponsonby. Larger and a brighter yellow. A Certificate 
of Merit winner at Fairmont, W. Va. 
The Conqueror. A giant purple (SC) seedling of 
Satan. We have had blooms of this one 13x6, a blue 
and gold ribbon winner. 
Heils Big Boy. Here we have a giant almost formal 
decorative, bright red that grew over 6 feet and was 
our outstanding variety last season. 
Emma Heil. (ID). Mrs. Heil selected this beauty to 
be named for herself and she picked a beauty. Base 
of bloom peach, red center, flesh pink. Also a blue 
ribbon winner. 
We are growing quite a few seedlings as well as 
some good two-year-old seedlings from other growers 
that were very promising last season. 
Visitors welcome at all times especially at blooming 
season.
