Blue Gown—48 in. I like this better than the Dykes Medal Winner Sierre Blue, 
and most of those who have seen it in bloom in Bayside agree with me that it is 
THE FINEST RICH DEEP BLUE CREATED TO DATE. It is a huge flower, 
of uniform color throughout, of fine form, with a brilliant golden beard in charm- 
ing contrast, a prodigious bloomer and it stands out majestically shoulder high.
