Hawkeye Red kw *% =(Heaton) (Med. For.) (Mid-season) A bright 
red sport of Vagabond Prince and seems to be an 
even stronger grower. Has all the good qualities of Vagabond Prince. A very distinctive shade 
of red that I think will be very popular. 
kk K&* «(SaALBAcH) (Giant Dec.) (Mid-season) Beautiful 
Helen of Troy blend of apricot and pink with smoky brown 
feathery blotch, edged scarlet. 6-8 immense blooms open with a total of about 20 buds. 
Beautiful color and can be grown very large. Has been grown 8 inches in diameter. Patented, 
so increase cannot be sold. 
* e kaw Kw (Witson) (Large For.) (Late mid-season) Smoky 
High Finance light orange gray with cream throat. A beautiful 
distinctive shade. Opens up to 9 large lightly ruffled blooms on a long head. Tall strong 
grower. Pus exhibition variety and one that I am sure you will like for the garden. See cut 
on page 12. 
Irak kk &w (Large Dec.) (Late) A clear gray color sport of Bagdad and I think 
more valuable than its parent. Identical with Bagdad except in color 
though possibly a little stronger grower. Very beautiful when used with yellow or other 
contrasting shades. 
Jeanie wkkwk* «(PRuITT) (Large Dec.) (Mid-season) Beautiful, distinctive, 
clear, rich pink with white midribs and creamy throat. 4—6 large 
beautiful blooms open. Unusually tall, strong growing plant with a willowy stem. Increases 
in popularity every year. 
King Click % kk %& ~«=«(Witson) (Giant Dec.) (Mid-season) Bright scarlet. 
Opens up to 9 five and one-half inch blooms on a long 
flower head. Grows very tall. One of the best scarlets on the market for exhibition. As soon 
as stock is available it should become a popular commercial. Be sure to try King Click. 
s s *k*w*w% «= (HeERRIDGE) (Med. Dec.) (Mid-season) Deep yellow 
King Midas with a small red blotch in the throat. Opens whee 10 
medium size blooms on a tall straight spike. A very nice yellow for exhibition or any other 
use. 
King of Hearts > Oe eee) (Giant Dec.) (Mid-season) Light 
coral red with a light carmine red spot in the 
throat. Huge blooms on a long flower head. Plant is vigorous but with me the stem is rather 
weak. Probably isn’t like this in other places as I have never had any complaints on it. 
Patented, so the increase cannot be sold. 
Laddie te kk %& = (HAROLD Witson) (Large Dec.) (Mid-season) Light pink. A 
more rosy shade than Picardy. 7-10 very large wide open lightly 
ruffled blooms. Tall straight plant with long flower head. Can be grown better than Picardy 
especially now that Picardy in many places isn’t what it used to be. I wish I had a much 
‘ larger stock of Laddie than I have as it is a very fine variety both for exhibition and for 
cutting. The large buds stand out prominently and are very decorative. See cut on page 26. 
Lady Jane KK «(LaKkeE) (Large Dec.) (Mid-season) Clear cream yellow 
with yellow lip petals which gives the flower the appear- 
ance of yellow. We call it cream but the New York wholesalers call it yellow and like it very 
much. Opens 6-8 large slightly ruffled blooms which are always well placed and of fine tex- 
ture. One of the best cut flower varieties. I consider this the most valuable for commercial 
purposes of any cream I know of. I would place it in any list of twenty-five best varieties. 
Only wish I had a much larger stock than I have. 
* *&%&%*% «(BAERMAN) (Med. Dec.) (Very Early) 
Lavender and Gold Fresh clean light lavender blending to 
a clear yellow throat. Opens 5 four inch blooms on a tall slender stem. Blooms are gracefully 
arranged with plenty of space between them. A:very beautiful variety for those who are ap- 
preciative of beauty instead of mere size. Have had a number of good reports on it from 
commercial growers this past season. Fine for breeding. See cut on page 16. 
4 Kk «(ARENIUS) (Mid-season) (Med. Dec.) A new 
Lavender Prince shade of lavender somewhat lighter than 
King Arthur. Opens 6 medium size blooms on a tall straight plant. Think this will become 
a popular commercial variety. Good propagator and healthy.
