MALAY CHIEF 
Morocco X Commander Koehl 
(70 Days) . . . Dark purple red with black sheen. 
Four inch floret, 28 inch flowerhead, 8 open, 20 buds, 
56 inches tall. Standing the roughest climatic condi¬ 
tions with the best. Stem always straight and strong. 
Difficult at times to get good placement, but when 
placement is good it is unbeatable in its color class. 
Shown six times only that we know of, taking six 
blue ribbons and one second to own first. (L., .60.) 
(M., .40.) (S., .20.) (Btls., .05; 12, .50.) 
BOMBAY 
Janet X Betty Nut hall 
(68 Days) . . . Rich smoky coppery tinted old rose 
with blue border around all petals. Small velvety 
cherry blotch bordered slate. Ruffled and heavily flut¬ 
ed. Extra heavy substance. Well liked by all smoky 
fanciers who have seen or grown it. Again we were 
unable to catch any shows with it from large bulbs. No 
indication it is no good, if it were not we would throw 
it out. For five years it has been our favorite smoky. 
Same prices as MALAY CHIEF.
