ment. 
Golden Dream (Groff). One of the best deep yellows. Very tall 
growing spike, with six or seven blooms open.

florets are extremely large, slightly ruffled and of a heavy 
waxlike substance. 
5 for 25c, doz. 50c. 
Dr. F. E. Bennett (D). The popular, well known fiery red. One

sun and rain better than most oranges. Tall strong, healthy 
grower.

5 or 6 large blooms at a time. 
Berty Snow (Mair.) One of the best lavenders. Has good sub¬ 
stance, large flowers and straight spikes.

pink. 
Coryphee (Pf.) Purest pink imaginable. Perfect, well formed, 
large round flowers. Eight to ten in number, carried on an 
excellent spike. 
Minuet (Coleman). Wonderful clear lavender. A lavender by 
which all others are judged. Six or seven wide open florets 
open at a time. Arranged perfectly on straight spike. 
Pelegrina. The large deep blue flowers have a strong appeal 
due to their color and fine arrangement of the florets. 
Purple Glory. Beautiful color with ruffled flowers. A favorite.

spike with 6 or more large blooms open. The best large purple.

ings or blotches. Individual florets 6% inches across, of which 
there are 6 or 7 open at a time. 
Blue Triumphator. Huge flowers of pale blue. New. 
Mother Machree (Stevens). Vinaceous lavender overlaid toward 
the edges of the petals with a sort of salmon pink. Color is 
difficult to describe but it is very beautiful. This is called a 
smoky but is really much different from the ordinary smokies. 
Red Phipps. Really a pink overlaid scarlet. Has real merit. 
Yellow Perfection. One of the finest yellows. Very large flow¬ 
ers with a good spike.
