INTRODUCING 
Rose of Sharon (Gray). Here we have a new shade of lavender rose with the throat 
dusted like that of a Gloxinia. This was a great favorite with garden visitors and 
received much favorable comment. With us it grew about 5% feet tall, opening 6-7, 
4 to 4%-inch blooms on a spike of 20-22 buds. This grows as straight as an arrow, 
with facing and spacing excellent. An exceptionally fine keeper as a cut flower 
and well hked by the florists. Makes fine clean bulbs and is a good propagator. 
Bound to make many friends. L., $3.00; M., $2.00; S., $1.00; Blts., 25 each. 
Autumn (Gray). Here is something that is entirely different in the line of smokies. 
One that is very difficult to describe to do it half justice. My best description of 
it is reddish and yellow to brown of autumn with a small throat.mark of yellow 
which greatly enchants the beauty of the flower. This opens up a fine spike with 
5-6 open at one time. Facing and spacing excellent. The plants are fine and 
healthy, often reaching a height of six feet. Heavy propagator and bulblets grow 
like weeds. L., $1.00; M., 75c; S., 50c; Blts., 3 for 25c. 
Alta (Young). Plant growth is fully as strong as Picardy with fine growing habits. 
Color is rather difficult to describe, but the general body color might be called a 
deep salmon pink or a light rose pink with marking of a deep maroon of a very 
unusual effect. With me this past season the blotch was plum colored. You can- 
not imagine how beautiful this flower is without seeing it. Open 5-7, 4% to 5-inch 
florets with 4 in color. Excellent texture and always straight with broad, healthy 
foliage. Facing and spacing excellent. This created a sensation with the garden 
visitors and one they thought they all must have. Don’t be fooled by the low price 
as there is a good stock on hand permitting a lower price. It is worth much more.
