Beatrice—A yery lovely clear, canary yellow. A ball shaped 
Pompon with quilled petals serrated at the edges. A very com- 
pact flower, very handsome in every way.

excellent growing habits. A good keeper and a fine shipper. 
The general effect when looking at a spray of these varieties is 
coppery gold, and the individual petals curl inwardly boat 
shaped and are deep Indian red. The reverse of the petals 
curling up, as they do, show very prominently and looks like 
a shining bronzy copper. Should be one of our most popular 
varieties. Price: 75e eaeh, $7.50 per dozen. 
Cordova—Creamy white, large flowering incurved. Decorative 
in type. Maturing November 30th. A variety we strongly rec- 
ommend. 
Debonair—Rich crimson decorative Pompon, blooming nor- 
mally about December 5th. Its symmetry combined with the 
rich velvety gloss and intense color creates enthusiastic com- 
ment wherever shown. In the 1945 National Flower Show in 
Cleveland it took top honors in seedling competition. Vigorous, 
healthy growth and long stiff stems are an added attraction for 
this fine variety.
