K. D. SMITH FOR 1947 
MARION VAUGHN 
This exotic flower has standards of a 
soft lemon ice, frosted. The falls of 
the same color have a white flush 
below the beard. Both the standards 
and falls are delightfully fluted. The 
beard is of the same color as the 
standards and the midrib is slightly 
cast with green. thus accentuating 
the attractiveness of the fresh, cool, 
clear, crisp, medium size flowers. In 
a clump it is breath taking. Branch- 
ing excellent, 36 inches, 4 branches, 
midseason. (Elsa Sass x Wood Thrush)

STATEN ISLAND 
An unusually bright variegatta that 
has clarity of color that others lack. 
The domed standards are bright old 
gold with a metallic sheen like gold 
cloth, which gives life to the flowers. 
The very flaring falls, edged the 
same color of the standards, have a 
distinctive jaunty carriage. They 
are velvety red in color and in the 
shade are intensitied in color. The 
hatt, unlike many variegattas, is 
wide and the reticulations do not 
extend too far down the falls. The 
flowers, 5 by 5!/, inches, are 
smoothly finished and very showy in 
the garden. 38 inches, 4 branches, 
late. (The Red Admiral x City of 
Lincoln).
