of Autumn. Blooms are large and of great depth. Stems, foliage, and substance 
are excellent. The low growing plant produces many blooms of exhibition quality.

winner in its class.

classes calling for the largest bloom In 
the show. The color Is a pleasing shade 
of apricot buff with salmon tints, shad¬ 
ing to soft yellow at the base. A stand¬

AMERICAN LEGION I. D. (American) Well 
grown blooms of It can beat them all In 
Its class, or for largest bloom In the 
show. For some unexplained reason, but 
few are able to get the maximum re¬ 
sults with it and for that reason it should 
not be recommended to the casual 
grower. The bushes are tall and vigor¬ 
ous. Flowers are very deep In addition 
to the large diameter. The color Is soft 
picric yellow.
