PORCELAIN BLUE_ 
(Biue) (Aceh) 
A Blue Admiral x Takima seedling. 
Color is a pansy blue with a clean, 
creamy white throat, which is unusual, 
as most of the blues have darker throat 
markings. One thing that impresses me 
in this new blue is the nicely-placed 
wide-open florets of a size measuring 5 
to 5% inches, putting it in the large 
class. It will open 5 to 6 excellent tex- 
tured blooms and showing 5 buds in 
color. The plants reach a height of 50 
inches, with a flower head of 20 to 22 
inches long. Has clean foliage, seems 
to be real healthy and a good propaga- 
tor. Has won in its class in several 1943 
and 1944 shows. Should be a welcome 
addition to the blue class, but have not 
yet seen enough of it to comment on 
its commercial possibilities. Believe its 
form of flower alone is one thing in its 
favor over most other blues. 
Bulbs, $5.00 ea., any size. No discount. 
1944 INTRODUCTION 
HEAVENLY WHITE 
Sport of Rosa Van Lima 
We introduced this variety in 1944 
with far too little stock as we were sold 
out on all large and medium bulbs in 
less than three weeks after our cata- 
logues were mailed. Stock this season 
is still limited, especially in the large 
size, so order early. 
The color is a sparkling blue white 
with not a trace of cream, and a faint 
lavender marking in the throat. Its size 
seems even larger than Rosa Van Lima 
itself, and will sure go places as a show 
and garden flower. 
Like its parent plant, it is a robust, 
heavy grower, making quantities of bulb- 
lets, that grow for anyone. Its commer- 
cial possibilities are of the best, especially 
for home market, and if Rosa Van Lima 
meets your approval I am definitely sure 
that Heavenly White will, as a cut flower. 
LARGE: $3.00 ea. -MEDIUM: $2.00 
ea. SMALL: $1.00 ea.. BULBLETS: $.25 
ea.; 6 for $1.00. Six bulbs at 5 times 
the single rate, 36 bulblets for $5.00. Not 
more than 6 bulbs or 36 bulblets to a 
customer. No discount.
