MARGARET BEATON (Twomey) Early 
Midseason 
A pure solid white with a small orange 
scarlet throat blotch. It will open 6 to 8 
well placed blooms on a long flower head. 
Plants are tall and graceful and it is 
widely grown as a commercial cut-flower. 
MARGUERITE (Pommert) Midseason 
A very attractive pink with a golden 
throat. It opens 5 to 6 very large blooms 
on a long, heavy spike. The plant is very 
vigorous. Throughout the mid-west it has 
been grown mostly as an_ exhibition 
variety but this past season the demand 
as a cut-flower was strong. 
MISS WISCONSIN (Kreuger) Late 
Midseason 
A beautiful rose pink that is outstanding. 
It opens 6 to 8 5-inch florets on an always 
straight spike. It is not a heavy propagator 
and makes its bulblets late in the season, 
Commercial growers having a stock oi 
Miss Wisconsin are not anxious to sell as 
it will be in tremendous demand by 
florists. This variety was one of the most 
sought-after cut-flowers grown by us this 
season. 
OGARITA (Willson) Midseason 
- Rose salmon shading to a golden throat. 
It is one of the tallest growing varieties, 
the plants standing 72 inches from large 
bulbs. Even small bulbs will produce No. 
1 spikes, the growth being so vigorous. 
It opens 8 large florets on a spike with 
flower heads reaching 36 to 40 inches. 
It is a healthy grower with dark green 
foliage and made a fine commercial this 
year. 
OREGON GOLD (Majeski) Late Midseason 
A large light yellow with a deeper throat. 
Its fine keeping qualities, ability to open 
many florets, and tall straight spikes make 
Oregon Gold one of the very best yellow 
cut-flowers. It also opens well when cut 
in bud. The plant is very tall and vigorous 
with the beautifully ruffled florets well 
placed on long flower heads. Produces 
quantities of bulblets which, in our plant- 
ing, germinated easily. 
ORIENTAL PEARL (CARLSON-PUERNER 
Midseason 
A rich cream with very large wide-open 
plain petaled florets. The florets will easily 
measure 6 to 6, inches and are well 
placed on an 18 to 20 bud spike of 30 
inches. It will open 4 to 6 and will bloom 
from small bulbs. At this writing (Sept. 7, 
1946) our bulblet planting is showing 
spikes of 12 to 14 buds. Oriental Pearl 
was introduced as an excellent variety 
for the cut-flower grower and the show 
fan. It is reported that a west coast grower 
is anxious to purchase all the stock avail- 
able. Florida growers say Oriental Pearl 
grows fine and large for them.
