INTRODUCTIONS FOR 1946 
ALBERT WITT. (See illustration on front cover). A clear 
yellow sport of the famous variety, “Bess Witt’. We are 
indeed fortunate to have obtained permission from Mr. 
Albert Witt of East Pasadena, California, to disseminate this 
outstanding novelty chrysanthemum this season. One who 
has grown ‘Peggy Ann Hoover’, or its sport “Best Witt’, 
will find this variety very hardy and extremely easy to raise. 
Like the parent, this new yellow sport grows large spiky 
quilled and open spoon petalled flower with luxuriously 
green foliage on good stem. It is of medium height and 
normally matures from around Oct. 10th on. Price $1.00 each; 
$10.00 per dzen. 
DESSERT MAID (Sunnyslope). A novelty introduction for 
1946 in red chrysanthemum. Though it is of ‘“mobiled 
petalled” type, petals of this flower will swirl more com- 
pletely in some season than in another. Some of the petals 
are quilled and expanding spoon-like into bright red at 
tips, while others have open feathery petals with golden 
reverse. As the flower matures, petals of the upper two- 
third section stand on almost perpendicularly and gently 
swirl around revealing the intriguing golden reverse which 
blend harmoniously with the red body of this unusual flower. 
It may be grown in sprays but the mobile characteristic is 
revealed only when disbudded. Certainly, it is one of your 
MUST for your 1946 collection. Grows to medium height 
maturing around Nov. Ist. Price: 50 cents each; $5.00 per 
dozen. 
GEORGINA HEDINGER (Blanchard Gardens). This gor- 
geous florescent plume may aptly be termed a symphony in

curly petals and follow downward along the smooth expanse 
of slender, graceful tubes to their termination and you will 
have run the full scale of pinks in all their variations. Has 
large, open fishhook tips innerlined with crimson amaranth.
