‘IT only have a bulb or two of your MAGNOLIA but it was a winner for me last 
year and this year | procured even a better spike. | believe this is a very outstanding 
variety. It was too bad that the bulb of MERMAID sent me as a premium bulb did not 
bloom at the right time for one of the shows for | had a beautiful spike of same and believe 
it could win in its color class in any show.”’ —W.M. Anderson, N. Y., 

Carillon %&%*&*&Y% (Medium Dec) (Early mid-season) Beautiful clear 
light rose of a distinct shade. Clear creamy blotch. 
5-6 medium size wide open blooms on a tall spike. A very reliable and free bloomer. 
Should be a fine commercial. 
Champlain wkK*k* (Medium Dec) (Very early) Clear light blue 
with darker lines in the throat. 6-7 large blooms 
open on a tall straight spike. A very nice early cut flower blue. 
Convoy New Introduction. See page 11. 
Cordelia kkk (Large Dec) (Early) Clear deep rose. Large wide 
open moderately ruffled blooms. 5 well placed blooms 
open on a head of about 18 buds. A sister seedling of King Lear and similar to that 
variety in habit and growth, but different in color and flowers are wider open. 
*&*%&x*wY (Large Dec) (Mid-season) Creamy white shading 
Corona more creamy in the throat with wide rose picotee edge 
on all petals. Very distinctive and beautiful. 6-8 very large wide open blooms on a 
head of about 18 buds. Tall strong growing plant and a very good propagator. I 
predict a great future for Corona for cut flower use and for the home garden and for 
exhibition. It attracts attention everywhere as it is so unusual and beautiful. 
Better get started in Corona this year. See cut on page 26. 
Debonair *** (Medium Dec) (Late mid-season) Lafrance pink 
Smee’ sc a heaieniactaael shading shrimp pink toward the center with a creamy 
throat blotch. Often flakes darker but comes clearer in cool weather. 6—8 blooms 
open on an extremely long head. Grows very tall and always straight. Many com- 
mercial growers in the Southern States say it does better there than Picardy. 
Duna %&*&% (Medium Dec) (Mid-season) Soft light pinky buff shading 
mon Laiceucnsatintas to pale yellow throat. Back of petals is a brighter shade. 
Beautiful clear distinctive shade that is fine for florist use, and is becoming in- 
creasingly popular for the home garden. 
Evensong %%&% «= (Medium Dec) (Mid-season) Large ruffled smoky 
lsemedahc! Seat stratcat. — ] with blotch. 7—8 large blooms open. Called an im- 
proved Mother Machree. 
4 kk % «(Medium Dec) (Early) Dazzling scarlet with white 
Firefly line on lip. Probably the best early scarlet variety. It is a 
little inclined to be short with me, but this past season have seen some fine strong 
plants in other gardens that were plenty tall. 
Glamis kK «(Large Dec) (Mid-season) A very beautiful clear un- 
2raetl beehetechecastesnebaee flecked salmon rose with creamy lip. 7-8 large wide 
open, fluted, needlepoint blooms open at a time on a medium height plant that is 
always straight. If a more beautiful pink variety has ever been produced I have not 
seen it. If you can appreciate real beauty of color and form be sure to get started in 
Glamis. Heavy substance, good propagator, a real glad that is going places. See cut 
on page 8. 

“No, 340411 (MARIMBA) opens GRAND here. | cut one with two open just put it 
in the basement, then brought up inside the house. Gone today 12 days later. Open beauti- 
ful to the tip. Better here than others Palmer introduced. We definitely like it. 
“ELIZABETH THE QUEEN is a distinct addition to the lavender class.”’
