COLOR MARVEL (Krueger) A 1946 intro- 
duction fer the florist and cut flower 
producers. The cleanly blended tones of 
orange and yellow, coupled with its ex- 
emplary field habits, make it an out- 
standing introduction. Its worth is not 
appreciated by seeing a single spike In 
the field, but in mass effect, nothing 1s 
lovlier. It grows 50 inches tall, spikes 
carry 18 to 20 buds, of which 4 to 6, four 
inch flowers open at one time. Season 
is early, bulblet production and germina- 
tion is excellent many bulblets blooming 
L $5.00; M $3.50; S $2.50; Bts. .60 each; 10 
for $5.00. 5 
COMMANDO (Palmer) A clear large scarlet 
blooming in early mid-season. Opens up 
to 6 blooms on a tall spike with slender 
but stiff stem. Not a heavy propagator 
but germination is satisfactory. 
L $1.60; M .75; S .50; Bts. .15 each; 10 for 
$1.00, 
CONNECTICUT YANKEE (Schenetsky) 
Truly a sensation in pink glads, a large 
blush pink with a most attractive scar- 
let throat blotch. Opens a double row 
of 10 florets at one time. One spike is 
a bouquet in itself. Has not been a sat- 
isfactory increaser from large bulbs, but 
bulblet stock increases fair. Germina- 
tion and bulblet growth are excellent. 
Connecticut Yankee has already made a 
name for itself cn the show table, time 
will determine its commercial possibili- 
ties. 
L $400; M $3.00; S $2.00; Bts. .50 each, 10 
for $4.00. 
COVER GIRL (LaSalle) A giant formal 
medium pink opening 10 to 12 five and 
a half inch florets on a 30 inch flower 
head. Plant grows tall and strong, al- 
most 6 feet. Was awarded a First Class 
Certifciate, Boston 1944 and was consi- 
dered the finest seedling in the show. 
Very heavy increaser. 
M .50; S .35; Bts. 2 for .20; 10 for .75. 
CRESCENDO (Sheely) Crescendo was a 
newcomer in my 1946 planting. It is a 
medium rose pink. The pink is remin- 
iscent of that of Peggy Lou, possibly 
one shade deeper. It has the so-called 
Picardy throat feather, in deeper rose. 
Crescendo attains large size of florets. 
Spikes carry 17 to 18 buds for me. It 
appears to have distinct commercial pos- 
sibilities. 
L $1.00; Bts. .15 each; 10 for $1.00. 
CRINKLE CREAM (Ellis) A medium ruf- 
fled yellow with wide open florets, good 
placement and average height. I believe 
this is the finest origination of Mr. El- 
lis, a most attractive glad and one that 
will meet the approval of most growers 
and florists. Good propagator and germ- 
inator. Try this one if you need a good 
yellow. Have had especially good re- 
ports on it this season. 
L 50; M .35; S .25; Bts. 10 for .50; 100 
for $4.00. ’ 
CRITERION (Kreueger) Rightly named for 
the performance of this steller light pink 
is an ideal for all glads to strive for. I 
have never seen one crook and it cuts 
100%. Wide open florets on a tall spike, 
18 to 20 buds. A very heavy propagator 
but bulblets do not make large sizes 
first year. One of the best in its color, 
Janet Lee either exhibition or commercial. 
L .20; M .15; S .10; Bts. 10 for .20; 100 for 
$1.50,
