This being a cross between a blue seedling and Picardy, the color of the 
large ruffled florets is between deep rose pink of bluish cast and rose red 
blending into an American Beauty color throat. Plants are medium height 
but build a good spike. Florists consider this a fine color. Plants and 
bulbs are healthy and is a good propagator. Makes bulblets as large as 
No. 5 bulbs, which, if given room will grow into large bulbs in one season 
under field conditions. Large decorative. Early mid-season.

Belmar (1942) 
This could be called a pale, ruffled, fluted Picardy. The color is creamy 
pink with pale apricot throat, overlaid with slight deeper feather. 
Spikes do not crook. Florets are 5 to 5%” with 5 to 6 open. 
BELMAR should be cut in bud and opened indoors where it will de- 
velop into a beautiful flower. If opened outside in the heat, the large florets 
are apt to droop. This can be grown into a massive spike that can classify 
aS mammoth type. 
A report from Washington states Belmar made 53” spike with 23” 
flower head with 8 seven inch florets open. AWARD OF MERIT, Minnesota.

Mellowglow (1942) 
A lovely pastel creamy buff and one of the finest florist flowers. ‘This 
is one of those varieties that “does something to you” and makes you want 
more. The medium height plants produce a good flower head holding 7 to 
8 open florets. Excellent for fine makeup work. Good propagator. Has 
been awarded a FIRST CLASS CERTIFICATE, CHAMPION SEEDLING 
AWARD and the AMERICAN HOME ACHIEVEMENT MEDAL. Early mid- 
season bloomer. Medium decorative.

Stoplight (1942) 
One of the best commercial reds and as a show flower can win in its 
class at any show. The always straight spikes average 50” in the field. 
The intense red, ruffled florets are perfectly placed and attached. The 
florets, which are of heavy substance, are heat resistant. Produces a tre- 
mendous amount of bulblets that grow easily. 
The florets are not too large as to make them sloppy. The largest I’ve 
seen, grown under field conditions, were 54%”. Since its introduction, it 
has won at most shows where representative spikes were shown.
