The following are all hybrids of my own raising. 
I regret that I can offer this year only these three vari- 
eties: 
Argosy. (1928) Clear sulphur yellow, single, 6 to 7 
inches across, with plum colored dash at base of pet- 
als. Garden Achievement Medal, Boston, F.C.C. 
Mass. Hort. Soc.; Court of Honor Award, Syracuse, 
1941. $10.00 
Canary. (1940) An even brighter yellow than Argosy; 
otherwise very similar in form and general character. 
A lovely flower. $10.00 
Narcissus. (1941) Clear pale yellow, rosy towards the 
center. A fine little flower. $10.00 
Of all the varieties below my stock is so low that I 
must withdraw them from sale for the present: 
Black Pirate. (1935) Vote of Commendation, Mass. Hort. 
Soc. Very dark mahogany red with black stains at 
base of petals. Single. A grand flower. 
Banquet. (1941) Yellow ground suffused strawberry 
red, semi-double flat rosette. Very large petals some- 
what crinkled. 
Brocade. (1941) Red gold single. Deep wine-colored 
stains at base of petals. A flower of great style and 
substance. Magnificent growth. Great bloomer. 
Centaur. (1941) Somber red with black base to the petals. 
Corsair. ( 1941) A darker Black Pirate, the darkest of 
all, so far. Large black stains at base of petals. 
About a week earlier than Black Pirate. 
Damask. (1941) Buff yellow double, with much reddish 
color suffusing the outer petals, with deep red stains 
at base. Much style. 
Festival. (1941) Pale creamy yellow edged and flushed 
with rose. A flat rosette almost double. A very fin- 
ished flower. 
Princess. (1941) Semi-double mauve suffused with gold- 
en sheen. Pale gold center. A beauty. 
Roman Gold. (1941) The most brilliant yellow yet. Not 
large, but of very perfect form. 
Arcadia. (1942) Semi-double yellow, somewhat lighter 
than Argosy. Holds its flowers well up above the 
foliage. Excellent garden plant. 
Marchioness. (1942) Soft yellow suffused pale straw- 
berry pink; brilliant center. Single. Beautiful form, 
style and substance. 
Silver Sails. (1942) Beautiful Silvery yellow faintly 
flushed; semi-double; heavy petals. Exquisite. 
Trophy. (1942) Bright strawberry red; semi-double 
rosette. Conspicuous yellow stamens in center.
