PHOEBE - ( Seedling [ Mrs. P. W. Sisson X Coryphee | X Picardy ) 
A grand pink of large size and very appealing color that is growing more popular each year. 
Phoebe is the nearest in color to the old Coryphee of Pfitzer’s, one of the loveliest pinks of all times, 
but which had one fatal fault: it rarely produced a straight spike. In contrast, Phoebe has strong, 
straight spikes with very long flowerhead and its growth is vigorous. Few glads can match Phoebe 
for health and vigor. It is one of the finest of all pinks. Its appealing color, grand spike, and all 
around performance will please the most critical.

MARSEINAISHE @ Aida Pelecrina » 
This brilliant large crimson-scarlet glad is constantly gaining in popular favor as larger stocks 
have made a wider distribution possible. It is a late variety, blooming after most other reds are 
past their prime, a feature that makes it very popular with the florist trade. Marseillaise produces very 
tall, straight spikes with extra long flowerheads, with florets of very large size. Its height, extremely 
brilliant color, and massive flowerheads makes Marseillaise a veritable beacon in any planting. 
Visitors invariably single it out in my patch. Marseillaise has won many blue ribbons, including 
one for champion spike at one of the Wisconsin G.’S. Shows. It is a dependable, brilliant performer 
that has pleased many and will please you.
