KENWOOD (Lins) (M) Pure spectrum red; a shade that has been 
called “Christmas” red. Its huge round flowers do indeed re- 
semble Christmas bells, and are usually well placed on tall stems. 
Everyone likes Kenwood, and the only fault we have found with 
it in several years of growing is an pccastenal crooked spike. 
M .15, Bulblets 15—.25, 100—$1.00 
KESTREL (Palmer) (E) An unusually strong growing orange with 
salmon shadings and light yellow throat. A little on the coarse 
side, perhaps, with stems like young cornstalks, but a glad that 
likes to grow and we like to grow it. Opens quite a lot of large 
florets, usually well placed but slightly upright facing. A heavy 
propagator. 
L .75, M .50, S .25, Bulblets 10—.35, 100—$2.80, 250—$5.00 
KING CLICK (Wilson) (M) One of the fine reds from George Wilson 
who has given us so many good ones in this color. Fine bright 
color, tall stems and good flowerheads. Placement not always 
perfect but usually quite good. 
L .15, M .10, Bulblets 40—.20, 100—.50, 250—$1.00 
LADY LUCK (Harris) (M) For real beauty of form and color, plus 
regularity of performance, here is a pink that is hard to beat. 
This is one Picardy sport that has never yet given us a short or 
stubby spike. Soft, smooth light pink with no markings; 7-9 open, 
florets a little smaller than Picardy but large enough. A beauti- 
ful flower that should be a winner at the shows and a fine com- 
mercial. Grand Champion spike at Minnesota, 1947. 
‘L 50, M .35, S .25, Bulblets 4—.25, 10—.50, 100—$4.00 
LAKE PLACID (Wilson) (M) A very pretty cream with light yellow 
center. Tall slender stem, fine long flowerhead. 6-7 good sized 
flowers open at once. The slight hooding of the florets does not 
detract, in our opinion. An A-1 commercial variety 
L .80, M .00, S .30, Bulblets 4—.25, 10—.50, 10084. 00, 250—$8.00 
LANTANA (Palmer) (E) Shades of orange and yellow. Not very 
tall, but an early bloomer that is always welcomed by the florists, 
A fast propagator and good bulb maker. 
M .06, Bulblets 100—.40, 500—$1.25 
LARIME (Wilson) (M) A big bold rather deep orange with darker 
throat. Primarily an exhibition variety, it has been a heavy show 
winner. A good cutter too, except that large bulbs give a per- 
centage of crooks in hot weather. Very fine in late season. Opens 
well from tight bud. 
L .50, M .35, Bulblets 10—.25, 100—$2.00, 500—$6.50 
LEADING LADY (Johnston) (M) Fine cream sport of Picardy, so 
well known it hardly needs description. It seems to be even more 
popular than Silver Wings in some sections of the country, 
although we give the latter a slight edge for its whiter color. 
Leading Lady is now being grown in huge quantities for com- 
mercial use, and it has been a great show winner in recent years. 
L .20, M .12, S .08, Bulblets 20—.25, 100—$1.00, 500—$4.00 
Received my order today in excellent soni I don’t see how 
you can be so generous with extras and overcount on a small order 
like mine. (J. K., Milwaukee)
