ESSIE SMITH A-SC-Pi. or L (Smith) One of the largest of recent introduction. Winner of 
several "'largest bloom" awards this past season. Color varies from lavender-pink 
to lavender. Flowers have great depth giving them a massive appearance. A 
good grower. Size | 1x6. Plant $2.00.

excellent formation. Petals are tightly rolled and the flower is well formed. Color 
is crimson-red. Size 8x3!/o. Plant $2.00 
EVENTIDE A or B-ID-Pu (Bissell) One of the finest of the 1940 introductions. The flowers 
are a deep violet-purple, fairly large, and of distinctive beauty. Each petal is 
notched, adding very much to the appearance of "fullness' created by the rolling 
of the back petals to the stem. A free, early bloomer that will win its share of 
prizes. Plants are broad, spreading, and rugged. Foliage is dark and leathery.

proportioned stems. Size 9x4!/). Root $3.00, Plant $1.50 
FARNCOT B-InC-Bi or BI. An old-timer, which is still one of the best in the bi-color 
cactus classes. The color is a deep purple, with the outer one-third of the petals 
tipped pure white. Like most bi-colors it will produce some solid colored flowers. 
Size 6x3. Root $1.00, Plant .50 
*FIGARO A-SC-Var. Reputed to be a 
seedling of Satan, with many of the 
good characteristics of the parent, and 
none of the faults. The color is a 
golden-yellow, flecked and_ streaked 
red. The flowers are very large, and 
most striking in appearance. Stems and

in the bi-color classes.. Size 1x5.

low. Long strong stems. Good grower.

with each petal tipped pure white.

: nicely on good, long stems. Size 8x4.

FORMOSA (Salem) This was one of our personal favorites of the past season. The 
blooms are fairly large, and the color is a very clean, attractive amaranth pink 
shading to Tyrian pink. It is a bright flower on strong stems, and the bushes are 
rugged. Not yet classified by A.D.S. but it would seem to be A-FD-Pi. Size 9x4.
