*>~X MARY VIRGINIA 
Christabel X Peggy Lou 
(80 Days) 1943... Another beauty in pastel shades 
of salmon pink and cream. Beautifully ‘ruffled. Good 
substance. Tall strong straight stem. A real “Me and 
My Gal” glad. Good propagator but only a small 
amount of the stock was planted last year, giving a 
clue as to the price of $5.00 per bulb for any size. No 
blts. offered. Champion sdlg. Wellsville in 1942. Only 
time shown. Descriptions of these three bonus bulbs 
are rather vague as we are unable to find our field 
notes at this time. Know well they will not disappoint 
you. 
At the seven shows at which we exhibited in 1942, 
we won twenty-two blue ribbons and better on sdlgs. 
under number, each one a different sdlg. 
We have a number of choice sdlgs. coming along for 
future introduction, some of which are already award 
winners and champions. 
We hope all fanciers will do your utmost to at least 
keep your nearby shows working, even though you 
may have to borrow your neighbor’s hoss and buggy. 
We are located 8 miles east of Lisbon, Ohio, 
on State Route 154.
