Variety and Description 
SILVER WINGS (Ritsema-44 ) 500-88 
Picardy sport that is whiter than its sister “Leading Lady,” 
but our Snow Flurry is still whiter and much better attach- 
ment. 
SNOW FLURRY (Clark-47) 400-85 
Clean, pure white Picardy sport, nicely ruffled, 18-20 buds. 
Blooms flat against the stem. Excellent attachment. Opens 
6-8 well placed florets. Should make excellent commercial. 
SNOW PRINCESS (Pfitzer-39) 400-80 
Creamy white that will surpass Maid of Orleans as a com- 
mercial. Opens better when cut in tight bud. 
SPARKS (Giass-47 ) 507-95 
Sister seedling to Coventry, but a little lighter in color and 
later to bloom. Cream with orange-scarlet feather on three 
lower petals. Opens 7 large, fluted, triangular florets of 
glistening color. 16-18 buds 514 inches in diameter. Fair 
multiplier. 
SPIC AND SPAN (Carlson-46) 432-80 
Ruffled deep pink which wins on number open and flower 
head. 20-22 buds, 10 open, nice placement. Excellent com- 
mercial spikes from small buds. Heavy germinator and 
good propagator. Makes nice baskets. 
SPITFIRE (Evans-42) 432-80

slightly ruffled 5-inch florets. Tall, strong stem, no crook-

Very large. wide open, round flower in deep yellow with 
small scarlet blotch. Free bloomer and good propagator. 
STOPLIGHT (Lins-42) 452-90 
Don’t confuse this red with the yellow listed above. Names

class. This is clear ruffled red, opening 6-8 blooms on a 
tall, wiry stem. Heavy producer and recognized commercial. 
SUMMER GAL (Zimmer-44) 542-80 
Sensational show flower. Beautiful ruffled geranium-pink.
