Ruffled: of course and beautifully so. 
Substance and Texture: Very good. 
Opening Quality: Opens fine from tight bud. A free, easy opener. Blooms are good to 
the tip and keep their size and color well. 
Height: 414 to 5 feet. 
Stem: Strong, straight and slender. 
Health: Good. Dark green foliage. 
Propagation: Very good. 
Amount of stock: A few hundred bulbs of all sizes, mostly medium and small. The picture 
on the cover was from a small bulb. 
Mr. Hatch says this is the best seedling he ever raised. It is really something and will be 
immensely popular for exhibition and cut flower use and a must have for the garden. 
Price $10.00 each for any size bulb. But there are not many large ones. No bulblets this 
year and | doubt any will be sold next year tho we might sell a few with bulbs next season. 
| have the complete stock of W. H. Hosmer. 
Rae (Seedling No. 46 A) (Miss Vermont x Aladdin) This is another very beautiful variety 
from Mr. Hatch that is not far behind W. H. HOSMER and may prove to be about as 
valuable both for exhibition and cut flower use. 
The basic color is white but it is strongly flushed rose with a tint of lavender. The flushing 
begins at the base of the flower and deepens toward the edge and with a white lip. A very 
beautiful pastel shade. Nicely ruffled. Opens up to 10 on a 90 bud spike. Heavy stubstance. 
Tall strong grower and heavy propagator. It stands out in any company. 
It opens well to the tip keeping its color and much of its size to the end and the last four 
or five blooms stand up straight and do not bend or break over as in many varieties. The tip 
blooms are perfectly saleable. 
The one fault of this variety is that it has an occasional misplaced floret. But this is not seri- 
ous enough to hurt it. 
Price $5.00 each for any size bulb. No bulblets this year. 
| bought the complete stock of Rae but Mr. Hatch, Dr. Graff and Carl Salbach are listing it. 
Jolly Roger (Seedling No. 45-26) (Gen. MacArthur x Rose Ruffles) Here is a variety that 
“should be very popular for the home garden. It is a ruffled and needlepoint 
dark rose with scarlet shading and a darker blotch, lighter in the upper throat. A difficult color 
to describe. Very tall, strong, husky, giant plant. Opens 6-7 well placed blooms of heavy 
substance on a long head. A regular he-man glad that you are sure to like if you admire the bold 
strong colors and growth. 
Price $3.00 each for any size bulb and no bulblets. 
Xanthia (Seedling No. 45-59)(Zillah x Golden Shire) A beautiful waved and ruffled dark 
—————~ yellow with a darker line in the throat. A yellow that is diferent. Opens 8-10 
well placed blooms on a spike of 14-16 and sometimes more. Tall strong plant and heavy propa- 
gator. Good placement and attachment. Like many other varieties it has rather short heads 
from small bulbs. But from large ones it is perfectly satisfactory. In growing for shows better cut 
out all but one eye so as to put all the strength into one spike. 
| am introducing several yellows this year but | think they all have a place and | believe 
that Xanthia will stand up in comparison with the others. Mr. Hatch says the florists he sells to 
like it better than any other yellow they have seen. 
Price each: Large $2.00; medium $1.50; Small $1.00. No bulblets.
