PRIDE OF EXETER 
ROBERT BLATRY: Exquisite giant-flow- 
ered, semi-double of entrancing beauty. 
Tube and sepals white with sepals tipped 
pink. The corolla is a most gorgeous 
shade of taffeta pink with the same life 
and iridescence of the finest of silk. Plants 
in 3-inch pots, 25c each; 4-inch pots, 35c 
each; 6-inch pots, 65c each. 
ROSECROFT: A fine compact grower. 
Very floriferous. Medium size orchid pink 
corolla and rosy red sepals. 
ROSE OF CASTILE IMPROVED: Med- 
ium strong upright grower. Small short 
flowers with deep lavender-blue corolla. 
Tube and sepals of delicate rose-pink. 
ROSE OF DENMARK: One of the most 
beautiful of all the Fuchsia family. Med- 
ium size flowers, delicate blush tinted 
sepals, with corolla of soft rose pink. 
Stock very limited. Plants in 3-inch pots, 
each 25c; 4-inch pots, each 35c; 6-inch 
pots, each 65c. 
ROSE PILLAR (Reiter, Jr.): Here is a 
tempting variety of exquisite charm, and 
in our estimation, one of the finest of the 
new fuchsias, for it introduces an ertirely 
new color. The plant is a vigorous grower 
with good foliage. The flowers are saucer- 
shaped with petals of clear neyron-rose 
edged with a thick margin of geranium 
lake. Sepals are neyron rose tipped green. 
In 3-inch pots, each 20c; 4-inch pots, each 
35c; 6-inch pots, each 65c. 
SCINTILLATION (Hazard & Hazard): 
Long reflexed sepals of tyrian rose inside, 
darker outside. Corolla single to semi- 
double with edges of petals picoteed. A 
strong grower. In $-inch pots, each 25c; 
4-inch pots, each 35c. 
. SUNRAY: Most beautiful foliage imagin- 
able. A striking combination of silvery 
white, green, orange and yellow. [f this 
plant had no bloom at all it would still 
be a valuable asset to any plant collection. 
Medium tall, rather compact grower. The 
rosy purple and salmon flowers blend well 
with the foliage. 

SUNRISE 
(Mme. Aubin x Aurora Superba) 
A shrubby stiffly upright plant with 
single flowers of a delightfully delicate 
new coloring. Tube and sepals are White 
. flushed Rose with the sepals tipped Crim- 
son. The single corolla is of the clearest 
Scarlet. The plant is strong, free blooming 
and quite sun resistant. Foliage is of med- 
ium size, of thick substance and of good 
color. 
Grower’s Opinion: Among the “white 
tubed” varieties this represents a finer 
coloring than any other to date. A good 
plant. Plants in 4-inch pots, 50c each.

SUNSET (Niederholzer): This one is the 
result of a cross between Rollo and Aurora 
Superba. The plant seems to have the 
good qualities of both parents. The corolla 
and sepals are a delightful combination 
of those scintillating golden-salmon and 
orange-red shades of a western sunset. 
3-inch pots, 20c each; 4-inch pots, 35c each. 
SWANLEY YELLOW: While not a true 
yellow, from a short distance the masses 
of flowers give that impression. This is 
one of the most popular of all of the 
Fuchsias. There is little wonder about 
this, for the plant is a strong sturdy 
grower, with luxuriant large leaves, and 
is practically a continuous bloomer. Long 
tube. 
THE DOCTOR: Another fine variety, 
deep pink to deep rose corolla with long 
pointed petals of soft salmon pink. 
THOMASINA: A splendid vigorous plant 
with lush dark green foliage. Medium 
sized flowers with scarlet colored sepals. 
Dark, exotic henna-orang? petals. Plants 
in 3-inch pots, ea, 20c; 4-inch pots, ea. 35c. 
TRAILING QUEEN: See hanging basket

TREASURE ISLAND: See hanging bas- 
ket varieties, Page 8. 
WESTWOOD: A tall growing, slender 
plant that will climb the side of a trellis 
or wall to over 10 feet. The long, slender 
flowers have a white corolla with twisted 
sepals of light red. 
WHITE BEAUTY: Open, saucer shaped, 
corolla. Four single white petals veined 
scarlet, sepals reflexed. 
WISTERIA: See hanging basket varieties

YERBA BUENA (Reiter, Jr.): Another 
fuchsia of unusual color. A tall upright 
grower with single frilled flowers The 
corolla, which is interestingly convulted 
and toothed, ranges from deep tyrian rose 
on its margin to rose madder at its base. 
The completely upturned sepals are pale 
carmine. This striking novelty is sure to 
be in great demand. Plents in 3-inch pots, 
20c each; 4-inch pots, 35c each.

Double Flowered Fuchsias 
ABBEY FARGES: A fitting subject to 
head the list of the double and semi- 
double varieties. I am not at all surprised 
that it receives so many compliments or 
is so popular. Its tall upright growth is 
covered for many months with masses of 
exquisite medium sized flowers. The 
petals which form the semi-double corolla 
are a soft silvery lilac surrounded by 
sepals of iridescent pink. It can not be 
too highly recommended. 
BERLINER KIND: A wonderful, com- 
pact grower. Very double creamy-white 
corolla with carmine base, enhanced by 
deep clear pink sepals. Makes a fine show 
when used in a basket. 
BLUE DANCING DOLL: Much like G. 
Monk, rich blue corolla with red sepals. 
The plant is a good grower and well worth 
having. 
BERLINER KIND 
BLUE GOWN: A very fine blue type, 
only recently introduced and already very 
popular. Deep blue corolla, light carmine 
tube and sepals. 
BLUE MOON: Without question the fin- 
est of all of the Blue Fuchsias. This plant 
was introduced in 1939 by Mr. Neider- 
holzer of San Francisco. The large double 
flowers have a real blue corolla, sur- 
rounded by bright red sepals. The plant 
is a good grower and really worth while. 
Stock limited. Plants in 3-inch pots, each 
20c; plants in 4-inch pots, each 35c; planis 
in 6-inch pots, each 60c. 
BRENTWOOD: An extremely fine, 
double, all white fuchsia. The plant is 
compact, with deep green foliage. At 
least one Brentwood should be in every 
fuchsia collection. Plants in 3-inch pots, 
20c each; in 4-inch pots, 35c each. 
CAMELLIA: A striking, large, double 
white with spreading petals that are beau- 
tifully flushed cerise. Bright crimson 
sepals. 
CAROLYN: A comparatively new hybrid 
with double flowers of soft rosy-lilac and 
sepals of deep pink. The plant is a rather 
low grower with good foliage. It is one 
you will like. Plants in 3-inch pots, each 
20c; plants in 4-inch pots, each 35c,

CRESCENDO 
(Mme. D’Anjou x Mrs, Victor Reiter) 
A shrubby upright fuchsia with medium 
sized double flowers. The outer 1-3 of the 
double corolla is Peony Purple while its 
margins and its lower 2-3 are Turkey Red. 
The horizontal sepals are also Turkey Red. 
A healthy medium shrub of good growth 
and continuous bloom. : 
Grower’s Opinion: We believe this to 
be the most red double fuchsia: Its bril- 
liance is particularly telling in the garden. 
A good plant arrests the eye. :
