Betsy Ross, but blooms around Thanksgiving. With me makes a 
nice growth of aboue 4^ feet and from a crown bud produces a 
perfect bloom of 7 inches. 
REGINA—A wonderful late lavender-pink of deep shade and lasting col¬ 
or. Blooms 8 inches in diameter, reflex in form, are borne on 5 ft. 
stiff stems. Late August crown bud produces mature bloom by 
Thanksgiving.

dark green foliage; has substance and will ship. Height 4 feet; 
from an early bud will mature its 8-inch bloom just before Thanks¬ 
giving. 
DR. ENGUEHARD—An old variety, but still one of the stand-bys. It 
is a bright rose pink; of medium growth. A bud about Sept. 10 
will produce a large incurved bloom by Thanksgiving.

together and still produce large flowers on long straight stems; 
matures about right for Thanksgiving from a mid-September bud.

and pot culture. Large incurved bloom, with reverse of petals a
