Catalog for a complete listing of Greenhouse 
varieties, together with flowering schedule. 

NOTE: Considerable concern is being expressed by 
many growers with regard to the spread of the disorder, 
which for lack of a better name, has been called “Stunt.” 
Plants affected will apparently start off satisfactorily and 
then stop or slow up. The foliage has a characteristic curled 
appearance and is quite brittle. Many plants will not 
bloom and those that do are off color and undersize. Some- 
times the entire bench is affected and then again only a 
few scattered plants. There seems to be no way that it 
can be recognized in the cutting stage and stock planis 
may be apparently free yet cuttings taken from them may 
be affected. 
The only solution, at present, seems to be the practice 
of discarding any lot of stock that shows any sign of this 
disorder and that is what our growers are doing. All cut 
tings we will sell will come from stock that is, to the best 
of our knowledge and belief, free of “Stunt”; therefore we 
disclaim all responsibility for any plants where this may 
develop.
