Cosmos Peerless “Pink Lady” 
COSMOS DOUBLE PEERLESS TYPE 
“PINK LADY” AND “WHITE CLOUD” 
It is a pleasure to announce that separate colors are now available in the ‘‘Double Sensa- 
tion’’ type Cosmos, which we are calling “Peerless Pink Lady” and ‘Peerless White Cloud.” 
Since the introduction of our popular Double Sensation Mixture three years ago, we have had 
numerous requests for these two colors, and we are indeed happy to offer them now as 
Novelties. 
These two ‘Peerless’ varieties are extra early flowering and have the mammoth Sensation 
type form of flower, which will average betwen 4 and 5 inches in diameter. In our field, the 
plants grow about 38 inches tall and have a multitude of 15 inch stems for cutting. Each plant 
is a heavy producer of flowers, with thrifty foliage, and will continue flowering over a very 
long period. 
As the color illustration of “Pink Lady” shows, two forms of double flowers are found in this 
strain. We call the upper bloom the “fluted’”’ type and the lower is an improved “crested’’ type— 
which will produce a two-inch crested center. It is also interesting to note that the fluted type 
flower is a deeper shade of pink than the crested ones.
