Hi Hat (Lins 1945) 
Very late blooming tall orange pink. When conditions are to its liking will 
produce fine tall plants with long flower heads, opening 5-6 five inch florets with 
practically all the rest of its buds, either partly open or showing color. Is a good 
propagator. Under our autumn conditions it has usually made fine plants and 
flowers and is one of our good late cutflowers here. Due to it’s lateness it is not 
recommended for northern and Canadian conditions.

RIO RITA (Lins) 
THE KING OF THE ORANGES 
Outstanding large beautiful orange. Tall plants with long flower heads, opening 
6 to 8, 54% inch wide open florets. Is not a salmon orange, of which there are many, 
but a beautiful exhibition orange. A seedling of Picardy X Pfitzer’s Triumph and 
from Picardy has inherited the faculty of opening large florets to the last bud, in 
water, when cut in bud. Responds surprisingly to good culture. If Rio Rita is 
grown as well as those beautiful spikes are grown by those great show men, who ship 
or bring those grand spikes to the leading shows, the resulting Rio Rita spikes 
would astound everyone. 
Since it’s introduction the supply of large and medium bulbs was always sold out 
early each spring. For 1946 spring planting we had only very small bulbs left to 
plant, these planted in April, produced lovely spikes and fine bulbs for 1947. Blooms 
in 95 days. Every glad lover can now enjoy this grand beauty. Be sure to include 
Rio Rita in your 1947 planting.
