HANGING TYPES—Continued 

SEVENTEEN 
MANTILLA (Victor Reiter, Jr.). A sensational 
new trailer which should grow to perfection in 
Southern California. With soft willowy branch- 
ing growth and beautifully shingled with bronzy 
foliage, Mantilla covers itself with long flowers 
of pure deep Carmine (21/—). The flowers have 
the longest tubes we have ever seen, some hav- 
ing measured better than three and a half inches 
in length. The petals are spreading and the 
sepals pagoda like. The entire flower, tube 
sepals and petals are of the one color, deep car- 
mine. During the trying 1947 summer Mantilla 
alone seemed to revel in the heat. A breeding 
triumph. 50c. 
MARINKA (Red Cup). Almost a self color with 
rosy scarlet corolla and crimson sepals. Very 
hardy and a showy one, too. 35c. 
MRS. VICTOR REITER. A long tubed single bi- 
color, corolla a pure crimson fading to white at 
base. Slender sepals and long tube of creamy 
white. SOc. 
MURIEL. Perhaps our most showy basket type — 
fuchsia, because of its amazing freedom of 
bloom and pleasing colors. Excellent in the 
garden, too, if given right support.- Single, co- 
rolla rosy lilac, sepals red. Very long petals, 
long reflex sepals. 50c. 

PINK BALLOON. Generally classed as upright, 
but because of its drooping habit we like it as 
a basket. Flowers large, loosely shaped. Tube 
and sepals dark red; corolla white veined pink. 
Very satisfactory. 35c. 
PROCUMBENS. Small flowered novelty fuchsia. 
Masses of small leaves. Flowers with yellow 
upturned edges. Profuse bloomer. Every fuchsia 
fan should have one for the novelty of this 
plant. Fast grower and true cascading type. 35c. 
QUEEN ELIZABETH. Holly-leaved foliage; flow- 
ers large, single; sepals coral red, reflexed; 
corolla rosy lilac. 50c. 
RED SPIDER. Similar to Butterfly, but corolla has 
a more rosy violet-blue. Fine trailing growth with 
medium-sized leaves. Produces masses of large 
flowers notable for their long spreading sepals. 
Stands some gun. 35c. 
SAN FRANCISCO. Strong, arching branches; 
flowers long, single; tube and ‘sepals carmine- 
rose; corolla geranium lake. Seven years old 
and still popular. 50c. 
SAN MATEO. Very large fine flowering double, 
one of the best for hanging pots. Sepals are 
pink, corolla of darkest Victoria violet with 
fuchsia pink splashes. This one will surprise 
WOU Ou: 
SEVENTEEN (Reiter, Jr., 1947). An entirely new 
double self-colored fuchsia of a real rose shade. 
The petals of the large double flower and the 
thick recurving sepals are clear rose madder. 
One of the finest fuchsias. 50c. 
TERRA COTTA. Single—corolla a distinctive 
shade of deep red; tube and outside of upturned 
sepals bright red, inside of peculiarly pointed 
sepals ‘terra cotta’’ red. Will stand considerable 
dryness. 50c. 
THE DOCTOR. Single corolla deep salmon-pink, 
long tube and sepals light salmon. Vigorous, 
large flowers, free flowering. A fine one. 50c. 
UTOPIA. Fast grower; flowers very large, single, 
perfectly shaped; sepals. brilliant crimson, 
rolled up; corolla dark Tyrian rose, exceptionally 
long. 50c. 
VICTORY. Large flowers, long, semi-double; 
sepals long, recurved carmine; corolla globular, 
long, of a solid rose madder. One of the finest 
basket type. 50c. 
WISTERIA. The leathery inside of the sepals is 
tinged with phlox pink. The single corolla is 
mallow purple, each petal on a long peduncle; 
each sepal rolled up carries a miniature petal 
on its base. 50c.
