Marqueeta (421) (Lins 1943) 
Large, beautifully formed and ruffled orange blending into a lighter throat over- 
laid with a small orange red mark. 
Is a very reliable and beautiful orange which is eager to grow tall’and produce 
fine flower heads with 5 to 5% inch wide open florets, if given half a chance. Blooms 
early midseason and is a good propagator. 
MARQUEETA is a good florists flower and we grow this in quantity for our 
cutflower trade. Seems to do well from Florida to Canada. 
We suggest cutflower growers try MARQUEETA.

“Just a word from Florida to tell you how pleased we are with MARQUEETA. 
Though the weather was against her not a bulb rotted and the spikes are handsome. 
The first STOPLIGHT spike is just opening and it is a beauty.” 
Hupfel Farm, Growers of Quality Flowers, Stuart, Fla., 7-29-47 
Apr. 28, 1947: “The MARQUEETA bulbs seemed to be actually bursting with 
energy. It was a pleasure to handle them. Don’t believe I have ever seen finer 
looking bulbs in my 20 years of buying.” Aug. 30, 1947, he wrote: ‘I certainly fell 
in love with MARQUEETA this year—it has attractive color and throat marking, 
fine form and is a very nice cutter. Think I will ditch all, or most all other oranges 
in her favor.”

Fiancee (440) (Lins 1948) 
Large baby pink blending to a large pure white throat. 
A greatly enlarged version of Sweetheart. Florets are 
not always perfectly placed but the color is so delightful 
and chaste that we grow quantities for early cutflowers. 
It blooms early, is also a good propagator. We had 
some lovely Fiancee in 1947. :
