CAROLINE YOSICK 
This small, lavender pink pompon responds exceptionally well to 
black cloth shade and is particularly of value for August or Sep- 
tember flowering along with Pinocchio and Gold Coast. You will 
welcome its dependable growing habit, as unlike Jewell, it does 
not crown, and compared with Jessie and Pink Dot, it has a more 
rigid stem than either one. The small decorative flower has ex- 
cellent color-holding qualities even under the earliest shadings. 
Caroline Yosick shows up best under artificial light that remark- 
ably softens or brightens the color. Natural blooming season 
October 20. Price $90.00 per 1000. 
GOLD COAST 
A small, intense deep yellow pompon of firm substance flowering 
naturally October 25. Since Gold Coast can be shaded ideally, 
we are recommending it along with Pinocchio and Caroline Yosick 
as the important trio for shading in 1947. It has the same clean, 
vigorous free growing habit of Pinocchio and also resembles this 
variety very much in its production. For cloth house growing, it 
is a top notch variety — easily grown and consistently depend- 
able. In our opinion, Gold Coast is a "'must'' for early shading. 
Price $70.00 per 1000. 
LAKME 
A glistening small white pompon that matures normally November 
12. It posesses a hard, durable, formal flower that easily satisfies 
the most critical demands for keeping and shipping quality. Its 
trim smart appearance is enhanced by a chartreuse eye. The 
habit of growth is free, wiry, and the dark, rigid stems develop 
a very productive compound spray. In growth habit and cultural 
requirements it very closely resembles the variety Cassandra. Its 
black cloth response is rapid and just nicely follows Pinocchio in 
the shading program. It lends itself well to out-of-season flower- 
ing and has been outstanding in the Cornell trials. High uniform 
production and the height of quality in its floral make-up assure 
Lakme a position of eminence in any list of early profitable white 
pompons. Price $90.00 per 1000.
