GENERAL COLLECTION 
including 1946 and other selected varieties. 
Descriptions are our own, and we are using popular color names rather than those of color 
charts so that the gardener without color charts (most of us!) may find it easier to form a mental color 
picture of the variety described. 
PRICES: Except where otherwise noted, all of the following, including the Trailing Fuchsias 
listed separately on another page, are 35c each for strong, well-established plants in 2/2” pots, the 
recommended size for shipping orders. Plants in 4” pots and larger sizes are available at the nursery,

and coloring.

beautifully formed large double flowers that

ange-peach, sepals and tube light apricot.
