ORANGE—2?2 Series 
(Incl. yellow orange and red orange) 
ACCA LAURENTIA (Holland) 70 *—tt 
Dec. Clean, soft orange, inconspicuously 
marked deeper in throat. Color does not 
fleck or burn. Slightly hooded. For 3 years 
we have studied this for flaws from point 
of view of cut flower use without finding 
any. Stocks limited and not more than half 
will be allowed to be sold. L .50 M .30 
S .15 Blts .05. 
BOBBY DAZZLER (Both) 80 **+Ttft 
Surely the best commercial orange we know. 
Brilliantly clear and velvety red orange 
with deeper throat blotch. Beautifully 
ruffled. But for Jeanie and Coutts’ Orchid 
this variety would be just about the sole 
contender for the most beautiful glad in- 
troduced in the last 5 years. On account of 
the greater intensity of color in this one 
probably it will receive the most acclaim. 
Florets have substance, are 514%4-61% 
inches dia., 5-7 open and are not crowded 
on the stem. Sales will stop when half 
our stocks are sold. Positively. L $1.00 
M .75 S .50 Bits. 10. 
DAZZLER (Both) 80 **+tttt Exh. only. 
The greatest dazzler for color we ,have 
seen. We never thought we would ever 
see a glad of scarlet orange that could 
match Pfitzer’s Triumph. But this is 
vivid dazzling scarlet orange with darker 
blotch. Slightly ruffled. 51% inch florets, 
9-10 open, 22 and more buds. Full double 
row Exh. type placement. Flower fades in 
the sun so it is not a commercial type. 
But what a “humdinger” for the show 
bench or home use if blooms are opened 
indoors! A spike selected from our com-

HURRICANE (Evans) 78 *—ttit Bright 
salmon toned orange, clear cream throat 
marked with several small cherry lines. 
Slightly ruffled. 5 inch florets, 8-10 open 
on very stretchy, long flowerheads. Easy 
propagator, frequently making large 
spikes and large bulbs directly from bulb- 
lets. In 1940 won the American Home 
Achievement Medal at Mich. state show. 
In ’41 it won for us a first and Vase 
trophy at Wellsville, 2 firsts at Mich. 
state, where numerous growers again 
acknowledged its high color value, first 
at Midwest and Champion Seedling at

ling. Best Ohio origination, Midwest, ’42.

LA FIESTA 90 *—7tf Dec. Bright orange. 
Deeper in throat. Tall, strong, wiry stem. 
Color a large improvement on the popular 
Senorita, with much taller spikes and 
better placement. A coming “‘cut flower.”’ 
Rapid increaser. Large blts. We have 
had spikes with 12 open florets. Also 5 ft. 
spikes from small bulbs. We registered 
its first’ win’ at “A°G.S.7°736- Has, AGM: 
from B.G.S. and E. Bay. Four wins re- 
corded in ’41. L .08 (100, $5.00).

CARILLON (Palmer) 93 *+tif Dec. Com. 
Clean, light rosy pink, creamy blotch. 
414-5 inch, wide open, ruffled florets well 
placed on stretchy, tall spike. We have 
not grown it long—just one year, so our 
observation in the field is limited but 
friend Elmer says ‘‘One of its many good 
features is that it is always straight.”
