(Quackenbush) 
(Picardy x Yellow Perfection). 
(Formerly Seedling No. 41135). Be- 
cause of its beauty, its high color 
value, its ability to open in water 
when cut in bud, its growing habits 
and its ease of propagation, it will 
be of special interest to cut flower 
growers and to backyard gardeners. 
The color blends from orange to a 
golden yellow throat. It opens 5 to 
6 recurved florets on an 18-bud spike 
with about 8 buds showing color.

florets are well spaced and well at- 
tached to the stem. However, the

ing it. Classification 420.

(Margaret Beaton x Seedling) This was defi-

seventy-five or more that were sent to us for
