The round ruffled florets of Hoosier Lady present their best appearance when sev- 
eral spikes are in a vase or basket. It is an attractive variety that blooms in early mid- 
season. 
HUNTRESS (Jack ‘45) 466 F. 12, 
Two seasons of growth makes it certain that Huntress is an introduction of merit. 
Its large florets, early presentation of bloom, with its many open florets make it so. It is 
a fine commercial variety and will win its share of ribbons at the shows.

in early mid-season. Lady Boo is a consistent performer of more than average height. 
LADY LUCK (Harris ‘44) 430 I. P. 
A glad in anyones best20. A peaches and cream sport of Picardy of the color of 
Greta Garbo. It has all the fine attributes of Picardy, although the florets run somewhat 
smaller. It is a fast increaser, consistent performer, and fine keeper. Lady Luck is a great

average growth.

One of the best lavender introductions, in this case a deep lavender with an even 
deeper throat mark. It is a consistent performer and a fine cut-flower variety. 
LEADING LADY (Johnston °41) 506 if P. 
This fine sport of Picardy needs no boom from any cataloguer. It has eamed its 
high, reputation on merit. It is a fine cream white cut-flower variety. 
MADELINE BROWN (Maier ‘45) 532 L Pe 
The fact that the color of Madeline Brown is a duplicate of that of Picardy, makes 
a handicap for this fine variety to present its qualifications. A trial will convince the skep-

It is a mid-season variety of cut-flower quality.

light. The red throat spears are not conspicuous enough to proove offensive. It opens up 
to 8 florets at one time. It blooms in mid-season. A small percentage of spikes with mis-

MINSTREL (Palmer °44) 566 I. R. 
The giant in the lavender color group. It blooms in mid-late season. The florets are

glads it will find commercial acceptance by growers. 
MISS VERMONT (Hatch °45) 540 I. R. 
A beautiful blend of pale rose and lavender that has a very lacy effect. The plants 
grow to better than average height and bloom in early mid-season. It will open up to 8
