Kenwood (Lins 1948) 
Absolutely pure red. Builds tall strong plants with large wide open plain petaled 
florets, of good substance and attachment. Opens 5 to 6 - 5% inch florets, have had 
up to 7”, in the field. Makes nice spikes from even small bulbs. Opens well when cut 
in tight bud. Is.a good propagator and the bulblets grow easily. This is a bright 
and pure florist red and commercial growers should try this under their conditions. 
QUOTING EXCERPTS FROM A FEW LETTERS 
Mr. Crichton, Great Falls, Mont.: “I had a lovely spike of KENWOOD at our 
show. It was awarded the ROSETTE FOR BEST FORMAL SPIKE with florets over 
51% inches and was runner up for best spike in the show.” 
From Mount View Gardens, Wausau, Wis.: ‘Had a spike of KENWOOD that 
was an exhibitor’s dream. Would have cleaned up any show there is. It’s the second 
year I’ve grown it and it’s good.” 
From Geo. M. Pearce, East Liverpool, Ohio: ‘When I saw KENWOOD in bloom 
in my garden I wrote in my notebook (get more Kenwood).” 
From J. M. Ratcliff, commercial grower, Jasper, Texas: “KENWOOD was tops. 
The first red I have grown that can take it and I’ve tried them all as they become low 
priced. Kenwood grew 65 inches tall here with 24” flower head. Opened 5- 5” florets 
with 5 in color. NO BURNING!!! Perhaps 5 open is under par for the variety but 
they all hold fewer open here than in cooler climates.” 
From Babcock Gardens, Jamestown, N. Y., Sept. 8, 1945: ‘The KENWOOD bulbs 
we purchased from you are in bloom now—so good we want more.”

Marqueeta (Lins 1948) 
Grand light orange blending to lighter throat overlaid with a small blending 
orange red throat mark. Produces strong 50 to 55 inch plants with 5 to 5% beautiful 
ruffled and wavy florets of good substance. Florets are well attached. Is healthy 
grower and makes sound bulbs, is a good propagator and the bbts. grow easily. Is early 
midseason bloomer and one of my best cutflowers. 'This is making more friends right 
along. One typical letter comes from Mr. Peter Kamper, Paterson, N. J., as follows: 
“MARQUEETA, I cannot find words good enough to express my sentiments on this. 
It’s beautiful, straight, fine grower, sturdy, so shall just say glorious and that’s mild. 
I’m nuts about it.” 
If you have not tried this for show or commercial purposes you are passing up a 
good one. Don’t let its moderate price mislead you. ‘
