Pe ANEW leer ME AC S'Ss : 5 
CARA MIA (Miller) A valuable early cut flower. The spikes are uniformly very 
tall and straight with long flower heads of bright shrimp, pink florets of medium 
size. 
CARMEN SYLVA (Prestgard) One of the older whites, very reliable and healthy, it 
is still popular commercially, and withstands heat and long distance shipping bet- 
ter than some of the newer varieties. Pure white, with very inconspicuous violet 
lines deep in the throat. 
CHARLES DICKENS (Pfitzer) Tall purple with darker throat. Probably the most 
popular variety in this color, it produces uniformly good spikes and is in great 
demand commercially 
COMMANDER KOEHL (Pfitzer) Massive rich blood red. Tall and vigorous, with 
blooms of fine substance, it has long been the standard of comparison in its color 
class. 
CORAL CLUSTER (Arenius) A large and massive spike of clear coral red or salmon 
orange. Very brilliant color and very good for cutting. An excellent variety. 
DEBONAIRE (Palmer) Tall, always straight LaFrance pink, shading to a creamy 
throat. Sometimes flecks darker. Produces practically 100 per cent excellent 
spikes with flower heads sometimes three feet long. A very valuable commer- 
cial pink. 
DREAM O’BEAUTY (Zimmer) Rich rose red, a lovely and unique color. You will 
note an occasional misplaced floret, but the vivid and unusual coloring has made 
it a universal favorite. A good commercial. 
DR. F. E. BENNETT (Diener) The standard scarlet red commercial. Not always a 
healthy grower but still the favorite with cut flower growers. 
DR. HOEG (Prestgard) Glistening dark red, very dark and very beautiful. The flor- 
ets have a satiny sheen unusual in this color. A fine novelty. 
DR. MOODY (Kinyon) Large cool toned lavender. Makes a good spike and blooms 
fairly early. Popular commercially. 
EARLY DAWN (Briggs) Excellent geranium pink with darker throat. Tall, large 
flowered, and with excellent cut flower habits, it is very valuable commercially. 
An exceptional forcing variety, blooms very early. 
EARLY ROSE (Jack) Bright vivid rose. Fine habits and a general favorite. Another 
coming commercial that will be very popular. Blooms early. 
E. I. FARRINGTON (Rowe) Lovely lemon yellow, somewhat ruffled. Medium 
height, florets of average size, fairly early. We find it a valuable cut flower. 
EXCELLENCE (Kunderd) Very bright orange scarlet. Extra large florets but not 
too many open at once. Blooms early and does best from large bulbs. 
FLAMING SWORD (Krelage) A veritable ribbon of bright red blooms open on a 
long willowy spike. An occasional spike will crook in very hot weather but 
otherwise the habits are good and it is very early. The standard early commer- 
cial red. 
GIANT NYMPH (Coleman) Dependable light rose pink. One of the older varie- 
ties but still a good cut flower. Tall, straight, and healthy. 
GOLDEN CHIMES (Ellis) Large light yellow, slightly ruffled. Tall and beautiful, it 
promises to be popular as a cut flower. 
GRAF ZEPPELIN (Pfitzer) Early bright scarlet. Good size and excellent color but 
not always at its best.
