SYDNEY B. MITCHELL'S 1945 INTRODUCTIONS 
During 1945 we offered eight new Mitchell varieties. We are again listing them as a group on this page. The stock 
of several of these is quite limited. These are priced the same as last season. The others are being offered at some- 
what lower prices. 
GOOD FORTUNE . . 
ADVANCE GUARD .. . $4.00 
White ground plicata, distinctly edged deep lavender. 
Large, full, ruffled flower on an exceptionally tall and 
well-branched stem. Very floriferous, good grower, 
graceful and refined in habit. Distinct from other white 
ground plicatas. 
. $8.00 
A beautifully finished pale pink plicata quite distinct 
in appearance and parentage. Taller and better 
branched than anything we have yet seen. Both stand- 
ards and falls of the medium sized white ground flowers 
are definitely edged lavender pink. A pleasing, well- 
rounded flower. 
OCCIDENTAL .. . $15.00 
A clean cream yellow plicata with nearly red stippling 
confined to base of the falls, giving them a most distinct 
and pleasing effect. The medium sized flowers are car- 
ried on tall, slender and well but closely branched stems. 
OKLAHOMA .. . $12.50 
A lovely and distinct blend of desert color—subtle but 
striking. The general effect is medium toned olive yel- 
low, the standards almost self. The flower is enlivened 
by a brilliantly contrasted large blue flush in the center 
of the falls and by the attractive haft markings of 
brown on yellow. Fine form, tall, good branching, very 
vigorous. 
OLD LACE .. . $10.00 
A unique bi-color.blend of plicata origin. Standards 
ruffled, palest parchment with a hint of mauve through 
the center. Ground color of falls similar but with a 
broad broken wash of mauve. Medium height, good 
branching and habit. Our only bi-color ‘‘fancy.’’ 
PRECIOUS .. . $8.00 
A fine tall new type plicata perhaps best described in 
general effect pale apricot. We suggest the name of 
‘‘fancy’’ for this new type as it is appearing as a new 
pattern in plicata breeding. The whole flower is suf- 
fused with a superimposed color instead of this being 
confined to marginal stippling. Standards and falls of 
well-rounded form. 
SANTA CRUZ... $4.00 
A unique variegata with clear yellow standards and 
falls completely covered with heavy red veining. Good 
form, substance and branching ; medium height. 
YUMA .. . $8.00 
A tall plicata where the strong yellow ground is heavily 
stippled dark red, purple and brown. The standards 
much lighter than falls and markings more suffused. 
The tall and well-branched stems carry this color pat- 
tern to greater height than previous introductions. 
The whole set of 8... $50.00
