STEPHEN FOSTER In. C. (Salem) This is one for the large cactus classes. The color 
is buff-orange, lightly suffused with Tyrian rose on both the face and back of 
petals. We saw a number of blooms of this one at several shows last fall, and all 
were eleven to twelve inches in diameter, with correspondingly good depth. It's 
record as a winner is the most impressive of any of the 1942 introductions; in- 
cluded in which are four Achievement Medals at: Peekskill, N. Y.. New Baltimore, 
Mich., Burholme, Pa., and the Midwest show at Milwaukee. The originator calls it 
the most hardy of any variety he ever grew. 
Plant $10.00 
SYMPHONY |. D. (Dozier) A fairly large, pink-toned lavender of rare beauty. Very 
prolific and recommended as a cut flower. 
Plant $1.50 
TOP FLIGHT S. C. (Dozier) A large bloom of Very ‘neat and trim'' appearance. The 
color is bright blood red, and is said to be fade-proof, even in hottest weather. 
Stems are extra long, holding the flower facing slightly up. Three Achievement 
Medals won at: Boston, Wilmington and Richmond. We were greatly impressed 
by a single bloom of this one shown in Cleveland, and are convinced it is a real 
addition to its class.

such, a real beauty. Winner of the Achievement Medal at Chicago.
