ing varieties. The clever breeder, 
with luck, may be able to pick one or 
two good ones from several thousand 
seedlings. The ratio is not high, but 
the thrill when you do get a good one 
is great.

from seed, but are mutations or freaks

BONNEVILLE ROSE—(F. D. Daines) (Salbach’s Pink x King Arthur). Due 
to an accidental mixup by Dr. Daines last year, very few bulbs of this variety

listing it as a 1948 introduction. Those few in the East who did see it have 
written me that they consider it one of the great glads of the decade. It is 
a very ruffled deep lavender rose. Probably will be classified as a 462 altho 
it can easily be grown large/enough to go into the 562 class. It is as ruffled 
as its parent King Arthur but with larger, more wide open and much better
