PHOEBE - ( Seedling [ Mrs. P. W/. Sisson X Coryphee | X Picardy ) 
A glorified, much larger Coryphee. Those who remember the old Coryphee wil] agree 
that its color has not been surpassed by any other pink to date. Coryphee was quite a 
sensation, thanks to its glorious pink color, but it lacked some very essential qualities - a 
straight spike was the exception, and both plant and bulb were highly susceptible to disease. 
Many a fan has been looking, anxiously, for a glad of Coryphee coloring, with a straight 
spike and a heatlhy constitution. Phoebe is just that, with the additional advantage of much 
larger florets and a longer flowerhead. 
Description — 
Color - Clear Coryphee pink, with lighter throat; no markings. 
Florets - Wide open round, well placed and spaced on an exceptionally long flowerhead; 
opens 10, with 6-7 showing color; floret size up to 6-642”; substance heavy and 
petals moderately frilled. 
Spike - Tall, medium heavy, but stiff and straight, up to 60-65”. 
Plant - Strong and vigorous grower. with healthy, deep green foliage. The foliage of 
Phoebe is characteristic and differs from that of any other glad that I know: the 
tips of the leaves do not point straight upward but bend over very gracefully, 
reminding one of the leaves of cat-tails. Excellent bulblet maker and_bulblets 
germinate readily and grow well. 
Season - 85-90 days. 
Prices for 1945, per Each — 
Large - $1.50; Medium - $1.00; Small - $.75

Phoebe is an imposing formal pink that must be seen to be appreciated. You will like it. 
BURGUNDY - ( Commander Koehl X Picardy )

narrow pencil lines of cream on the lower petals greatly enhance the effect.
