Our Non-Branching Ball White No. 16 for Easter. 
OUR 3 FINEST 
Our own growing experience indicates that these three can’t 
be beat and enthusiastic reports from growers everywhere bear 
this out. 
*No. 16 Ball White Improved-Medium Tall. Our earliest pure 
white, with extra large florets and well-formed, compact 
spikes. Not recommended for outside planting, but suf- 
ficiently long-stemmed for greenhouse culture. 
*No. 1 Lilac Lavender. Second only in popularity to Ball White. 
Our own excellent large flowered strain that is well liked 
by all markets. 
*No. 22 Bali Supreme. Extra long stiff stems and fine heavy 
spikes of rich silvery rose have made this the outstanding 
variety in its color class. 
Pink, Rose and Red Varieties 
No. 11 Ball Pink. A medium light rose pink. Earlier and some- 
what lighter than our No. 22, but not quite as long stemmed. 
*No. 14 Ball Rose Pink. An early flowering fairly deep rose 
pink. Darker in color and longer stemmed than the above 
variety. 
No. 9 Chamois Pink Improved. A warm rosy buff color. Dis- 
tinctly improves the original stock of this variety in stem 
length and percentage of doubles. 
No. 7 Malmaison Pink. Extra long-stemmed blush pink, with 
some tendency to branch at the base of the flower spike. 
Useful in combination with darker varieties. 
No. 6 American Beauty. Rich deep American Beauty or car- 
mine rose. An appealing but rather heavy color. 
No. 8 Ruby. Long-stemmed, glowing crimson red. Plant 
moderately of this rather strong color for market use.

STOCKS 
The increasing popularity of our 
fine scientifically-bred strains 
of Non-branching Stocks is re- 
flected in the steadily increas- 
ing demand for this seed. This 
is explained by the ease with 
which they are grown and the 
fact that less labor is needed to 
produce a profitable crop than 
most items require. While we 
are making every effort to pro- 
duce sufficient seed, supplies of 
a few varieties occasionally run 
short. Early ordering will help 
to assure your needs.

White Varieties 
*No. 15 Ball White Improved. Slightly smaller flowered than 
our No. 16 but longer-stemmed. Where Stocks can be 
grown outdoors this is the preferred white, but does equally 
well under glass. 
No. 5 Ball White Extra Dwarf. The extra dwarf (12 to 14 in.) 
habit and compactly formed pure white spikes of this new 
type suit it well for pot plant use. 
Gardenia. Long stemmed and pure white, but not entirely non- 
branching. One of the latest flowering varieties. 
Lavender, Blue and Purple Varieties 
No. 3 Ball Blue. A medium lavender mauve identical in habit 
to Lilac Lavender. A moderate amount of this is usually 
wanted. 
No. 23 Pastel Lavender. A pale, smoky lavender selection from 
our Lilac Lavender. 

No. 21 PURPLE HEART 
Our New Non-Branching Stock 
This is slightly larger flowered and a stronger grower than 
our Ball Purple and will replace that variety. This original 
color in Non-Branching Stocks was developed by us in our 
greenhouses. The improved form is the result of the single 
plant selection method we use in maintaining and improving 
our valuable specialties. 

Miscellaneous Varieties 
*No. 20 Ball Apricot. Strong growing buff with a faint pink 
tinge. An extra large flowered variety that blends well 
with all lavender and blue shades. 
No. 17 Gold Standard. Creamy ivory yellow. An attractive 
novelty color. 
No. 10 Mixture. Our own formula mixture. Contains mostly 
oe market varieties with a limited amount of novelty - 
colors.
