White, blended canary throat. Lustrous and lightly ruffled. 
Opens seven 6-inch florets. Very early. 
LADY JANE (Lake-41 ) 406-85 
Clear light cream with yellow lip. Appears to be a light 
yellow. Fine commercial and show flower. 
LADY LUCK (Harris-44) 540-80 
Sport of Picardy, very nice peaches-and-cream color. 
Similar to Greta Garbo, but longer head. Different than 
other Picardy sports. A real beauty worth trying. 
LANCASTER (Palmer-44 ) 470-85 
Clear dark purple with 8-10 lightly waved and ruffled 
blooms open on a tall, straight stem. An improvement in 
the purple class. 
LANTANA (Paimer-43) 420-75 
Early orange and yellow. Opens 6-8 rather large florets on 
a medium stem. About the best in this color combination. 
LAVENDER AND GOLD 
(Baerman-43 ) 366-70 
Early, 5-7 open, frilled, yellow-throated lavender. Blooms 
on a tall, wiry, straight stem. Good grower and propagator. 
Excellent commercial value. 
LAVENDER PRINCE 
(LaSalle-44) 466-90 
Tall and better than King Arthur and a little lighter shade 
of lavender. Looks good and should make a good com- 
mercial. 
LAVENDER QUEEN 
(Arenius-37 ) 366-82 
Deep lavender-mauve that flakes in real hot weather. Very 
strong grower and a good show flower. We like it. 
LEADING LADY (Johnston-42) 506-87 
Most popular Picardy sport. Grown commercially for cut 
flowers in all parts of the country. Leading white. Creamy 
white with no markings. Clean and excellent grower. 
LIPSTICK (Balentine-41 ) 441-90 
Beautiful ruffled shell-pink with bright rose-red plumes in 
throat. Florets large, good texture and all the buds show 
color on tall, straight spikes.

Clear lavender with small cream throat. 20 buds, 6-7 open, 
5-inch blooms, flower head 25 inches. Good placement, 
healthy grower, good propagator.
