LAKME 
(Depetris) 
A glistening small white pompon that matures normally November 12. It 
possesses a hard, durable, formal flower that easily satisfies the most critical 
demands for keeping and shipping quality. Its trim, smart appearance is 
enhanced by a chartreuse eye. The habit of growth is free, wiry and the 
dark, rigid stems develop a very productive compound spray. In growth 
habit and cultural requirements it very closely resembles the variety Cas- 
sandra. Its black cloth response is rapid and just nicely follows Pinocchio 
in the shading program. It lends itself well to out-of-season flowering and 
has been outstanding in the Cornell trials. High, uniform production and 
the height of quality in its floral make-up assure Lakme a position of 
eminence in any list of early profitable white pompons. Price $90.00. 
OMEGA 
(Yoder Bros.) 
A deep lemon yellow pompon maturing December 10, just nicely following 
Sunnyside. Omega combines an exceptionally strong, vigorous habit and 
beautiful dark, glossy foliage with a rigid, wiry spray. The formal flower 
possesses unusual substance and keeping quality. No blindness has ever 
been apparent and tests indicate a very high degree of resistance to Vertt- 
cillium. Omega in its natural season complements Sunnyside by extending the - 
season of top quality yellow pompons. It is equally valuable on raised benches 
or ground beds. On the latter with late planting and lights it is easily had 
for Christmas. It has been successfully lighted into February flowering. 
Unhesitatingly we recommend Omega as the best pompon to follow Sunny- 
side. Price $90.00. 
DARK PINK ORCHID QUEEN 
(Delworth) 
An intense mauve pink sport from Orchid Queen with the added attributes 
of increased vigor in both plant and flower. The importance of its value 
over its parent for early shading has been proven by extensive tests. The 
color is much deeper. The flower is larger and more fully rounded. The 
foliage, stem and height of the plant are larger and stronger than the original. 
Dark Pink Orchid Queen should rapidly take a prominent position in the list 
of good standards. Price $90.00.
