KUBLIA KHAN (Steinpreis) (Sport of Genghis Khan) 
We have been fortunate in discovering a true sport of Genghis Khan 
with the exact features of the latter with the exception of the color, which we 
believe is a real break in color. Of all glads we have grown, we have never 
seen any like it. It is a true salmon fading to a lighter salmon in throat with 
faint lines in throat on lower petals. 
Watch for this release in 1947 or 1948.
