GRAY PHANTOM 
Mother Machree X Roderick Dhu 
(90 Days) . . . First at Ohio State 1939, only time 
shown. A distinctly new shade in glads that is appeal¬ 
ing. Orange heavily overlaid gray with bright velvety 
orange crimson blotch. Just seems to take the smoky 
fanciers off their feet. We feel safe in saying you will 
hear considerably more of this one at future shows. 
We used 98% of our spikes from large bulbs for 
hybridizing the past summer. Six and one-half inch 
floret. Seven open, 20 buds, 34 inch flowerhead, 63 
inches tall. Very well behaved. Propagation excellent. 
Same prices as JULES AMOTT. 
ORIENTAL DISPLAY 
Commander Koehl X Morocco 
(90 Days) . . . First Penna. 1938 as exh. seedling. 
First Wellsville 1939. Only times shown. Big dazzling 
red scarlet of monstrous appearance. Exh. type. Seven 
inch floret, 7 open, 30 inch flowerhead or better, 20 
buds, 68 inches tall. Expect to do a heap more winning 
with this one. Otherwise not saying much. Just giving 
you something to think about. Same prices as JULES 
AMOTT. 
BUCKEYE ROSE 
Picardy X Aflame 
(87 Days) . . . First at Wellsville 1937 as sdlg. We 
have been laying down on the job on this one. Am 
sure it would have several good ribbons to its credit 
by now with a little cooperation from us. Sort of a 
forgotten soldier in our fields. Was not going to intro¬ 
duce it this year but so many have asked for it we 
decided to hang it out. Many voted it the most beauti¬ 
ful flower in the show. Smoky old rose showing very 
little smoke. Heavy substance. Fluted and well open. 
Five and one-half inch floret, 8 open, 20 buds, 27 inch 
flowerhead, 55 inches tall. Excellent propagator. No. 
1, 2, or 3 size, $2.00 each; No. 4, 5, or 6 size, $1.00 
each; bits., .20 each or 10 for $1.25.
