Our 1947 Vutroductious 
BEAUTY’S BLUSH (Fischer) 
(Margaret Beaton X Choice Seedlings) 
(268-42) 
In Beauty’s Blush we offer a euphony in 
color, rhythm and style. The name speaks 
of a cool, soft blushing pink that has lots 
of sparkle. Tall, stiff, wiry stems reveal the 
stalwart character of this lovely flower. 
Seven or eight flat, 5 inch, saucer like 
florets are precisely but neatly arranged on 
a tall 18 to 20 bud spike. Stands heat well. 
I have never seen a crooked or short spike. 
Beauty’s Blush is a robust grower, distinctly 
disease resistant and precocious, blooming 
unusually well from small bulbs. Even from 
large bulbs it produces lots of big bulblets 
which germinate well. Opens well in water. 
We thought of calling it Summer’s Delight, 
for it was just that from midseason until 
frost. A season’s highlight every year it 
bloomed—my favorite glad. I believe it to 
be my best introduction to date. When we 
cut flowers for the florists last summer I 
always left Beauty’s Blush, I couldn’t bear 
to part with it. I believe it will go clear to 
the top, a sure-fire commercial and also a 
critic’s fancy. 
$2.00 each, any size 
12 for $20.00. No bulblets.

The three spikes on the cover are of our pet, 
BEAUTY’S BLUSH. We had many spikes as fine 
as these, most every one a show spike.
