10-25c. 
RAMSAY MacDONALD (Pfit zer)—A fine new purple self that is the best of this color. Bet¬ 
ter than Paul Pfitzer, Troubadour and Dickens. The best purple we have seen to date. 
L 15c, M 10c, S 3-1 5c, Bits. 10-1 5c. 
RANGITIKI (Julyan ) —Pale delicate salmon tinted with purple mauve towards outer edges.

large, well placed florets. L 15c, M 10c, S 3-1 5c, Bits. 10-1 5c. 
RAPTURE (Palmer) —Deep salmon with a cream throat. Tall even grower, a 100% cutter, 
and a nice commercial variety. L 3-1 5c, M 6-1 5c, S 10-10c, Bits. 60-1 0c. 
RECORDER (Whiteley) —This rather new variety is of the usual Miss Whiteley type. The

M 10c, S 3-1 5c, Bits. 1 0-1 5c.

and may make a good commercial. L 2-15c, M 2-10c, S 4-10c. Bits 25-10c. 
RED ENSIGN (Errey) —A much improved Victor, which, for those of you who never knew it, 
is a bright scarlet with conspicuous white throat edged scarlet. The flowers of this glad 
are larger and the plant a stronger grower than Victor. Errey tells us that this has the 
“same parentage of Mrs. S. A. Errey and should be well liked.’’ L $1.00, S 35c, Bits. 
10-80c. 
RED GIANT (Phillips)- —One of the three placed in the Mammoth Class at Ballarat. The 
flower spike is about thirty inches in length, strong and straight, with up to eight perfect¬ 
ly placed blooms open at once. Color is a bright cerise rather than red, darker in the* 
throat and a white line in petals. Many visitors to our field remark that it is the color 
of an American Beauty rose. We like it better than any of the other so-called giants. 
L 40c, M 30c, S 15c, Bits. 10-30c. 
RED KNIGHT (M air) —A bright peach red, shading darker, with a white throat and lighter 
midribs in lower petals. A very colorful glad. L 30c, M 20c, S 10c, Bits. 10-25c.

about six at once, is a strong grower and a great glad. L 2-25c, M 2-12c, S 3-10c, 
Bits. 1 5-20c.

throat which is overlaid by a velvety rose red feather. L 25c, M 15c, S 10c, Bits. 
1 0-25c. 
RIMA (Mitsch) —Very fine lavender with a cream throat. The color is grand and, as it grows 
as strong as Picardy, should go far as a commercial lavender which is much needed right 
now. L 40c, S 15c, Bits. 10-30c. 
ROBERT SHIPPEE ( Winsor-Moseley) —See Flying Cloud Farms’ Introductions. 
ROI SOLEIL (Velthuys) —A light yellow which is very erly. A very pleasing glad and the 
small red peppered feather in the throat sets it off most attractively. L 3-1 5c, M 6-1 5c, 
S 10-lOc, Bits. 60-10c. 
RONA (julyan) —A rich cream with a plum blotch in the throat and rather heavily flecked 
cherry rose. This is about the size of Miss New Zealand with the same large, round 
florets of good substance and opens fully as many as Miss New Zealand—almost seems 
as though Rona was a sport of the former. L $1.50, M $1.00, S 60c, Bits. 15c each. 
RONDA (Pfitzer) —Formerly sold under the name of Max Schmeling. Very large flowers with 
dark red petals rather pointed. About six open on an eighteen bud spike; a strong grower

50c, S 25c, Bits. 1 0-80c. 
A customer in Maine wrote—“I want to thank you for the extra fine extras and also over¬ 
counts. If you treat all of your customers the same as I have been treated, how can 
you stay in business?” 
An Illinois customer writes—“Bulbs arrived in fine condition. They sure are nice bulbs and 
thanks very much for the extra bulbs. I didn’t expect you to send some of each variety 
1 suggested so thanks a million. I sure had fine blooms from your bulbs last year.”
