(Limited Stock) 
MAJOR EDWARD BOWES —An outstanding 1936 introduction. It is a 
bright rosy pink—brighter than J. W. Prince, and the color is inten¬ 
sified under artificial light. Fully double from any bud, but best 
bud around August 30th. Six inch incurved blooms, mature around 
October 18th. With me held its color under our hot sun. 
MRS. HENRY R. REA —An incurved pure white with rather pointed petals. 
Produces an 8-inch bloom with me—in fact, one of the earliest large 
incurved white I know of. Foliage is unusually large and deep green; 
also extends right up to bloom; stem rigid. Best bud Sept. 1; blooms 
October 25th. 
LOUISA POCKETT —Blooms Oct. 25th from mid-August bud; an un¬ 
usually fine very early white variety from Australia. Late buds show 
delicate pink shade; a popular variety as an exhibition, 
YELLOW POCKETT —Blooms Oct. 25th from August 20th bud; an ex¬ 
hibition size yellow incurved bloom; very popular with growers 
specializing in extra large blooms. 
APRICOT QUEEN —A recent introduction; a large incurved orange of 
unusual brilliancy with reverse golden yellow. Growth is short jointed 
and foliage small and extends right up to the bloom. Best bud first 
week in Sept, to produce large bloom the last few days of October. 
EVENING GLOW —Another recent introduction with a color as bright 
as Sunglow. Small foliage but strong growth, plants attaining a 
height of 4 1-2 feet. A bud taken around Sept. 10th will produce a large 
incurved bloom, about Oct. 25th. 
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 28th. I con¬ 
sider this the very best early yellow of the recent introductions. 
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 grow’th is much more vigorous than the old 
Mrs. Buckingham. Also with me it is more prolific. Should not be 
disbudded—or at least onh^ partially so. Matures here around Oct. 30. 
POCKETT’S CRIMSON —A magnificent 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— rProbably the finest exhibition bronze yet introduced. It is 
reflexed with long petals. Semi-dwarf in grow.th, but admirably suited 
for exhibition purposes. Best bud middle of August. Blooms* 10 in¬ 
ches in diameter, mature last few days of October. 
J. R. BOOTH —This is a bright yellow sport of the well-known variety 
NAGIRROC. Identical in other respects. Both varieties have ex¬ 
cellent reputations as exhibitions. 
DR. J. M. INGLIS —This is a very large exhibition; color a rich purplish 
amaranth with the reverse of the petals silvery; from a bud taken 
the third week in August it will produce a very large loosely incurved 
bloom by Nov. 1. About 4 1-2 feet tall with large foliage.
