ROOTS, NO WORN OUT STOCK 
PINK, ROSE and SALMON SHADES (Cont.) 
MASANTELLO. Some years ago we introduced this splendid 
French Hybrid but all too soon our stock was sold out. 
Lately it has received much attention and we are again offering 
this fine variety. Its cup-shaped flowers are pink dotted with 
carmine and have a most pleasing fragrance. A free bloomer 
and very desirable. Special indeed at $1.75. 
MME. JULES CHIFLOT. While of moderate growth, this plant 
produces lovely pink flowers of greatest size. The stamens 
are bright yellow, foliage light green. The rigid flower stalk 
often carries the blooms slightly above water level. It at- 
tracted a great deal of attention in our show pool last year. 
(See illustration.) $2.50. 
LUSTROUS. If you want an unusually beautiful new lily for 
your pool, choose Lustrous. The large flowers of this out- 
standing novelty are marked by a lovely silvery sheen, some- 
times called deep peach. Rose pink petals, thick yellow stamens. 
The sepals are deeper pink on the inside, brown underneath. 
The Lustrous is a strong grower and very compact as short 
leafstems restrict the spread. (See color illustration, page 15.) 
$2.25.

PINK OPAL 
CHANGEABLE SHADES 
This interesting group includes the fascinating cop- 
per colored varieties, the dainty shades of apricot and 
orange, and the so-called “‘sunset colors.” 
COMANCHE. A French hybrid which has become 
practically standard in this color group. The 
flowers open a rich apricot which color changes later 
to a deep coppery bronze as the flower ages, the oldest 
flowers showing a glowing red color in the center. The 
orange stamens present an attractive contrast. (See 
color illustration on page 15.) $2.00. 
PAUL HARIOT. We always hesitate in expressing a 
personal choice but we have an especial liking for 
the very charming variety, Paul Hariot. Its beauty 
is difficult to describe. The flowers are quite large 
and are produced freely. The first day the petals are 
¢lear yellow, suffused with an orange pink the second 
day. It gradually deepens to almost red on the fol- 
lowing days. A most desirably variety. (See color 
illustration on page 12.) $2.25. 






One of our Very Finest Varieties 
SOLFATARE. In this variety we have an al- 
most exact counterpart of Paul 
Hariot except in size of bloom. Solfatare can really be 
described as a miniature Paul Hariot and being such a 
moderate grower is well adapted to tub culture. (See 
color illustration on page 18.) $1.75.
