A FEW WORDS ABOUT OUR INTRODUCTIONS 
We sent so many catalogs last year to new enthusi- 
asts that we will devote this page to describing briefly, 
a few of the most important features of the African Violet 
varieties we have named and introduced in the last two 
years. Each one is distinct and a leader in its color class. 
e BLUE GIRL SUPREME is especially desirable because 
of its foliage and giant-sized flowers. The foliage on 
mature plants is very scalloped and there is also a 
white spot in the center of each “flute.” This variety 
remains compact and is a fine windowsill plant. You 
will have many huge blooms without special atten- 
tion. 
e DUCHESS and REGAL WINE are both exquisite 
double-flowering varities— identical excepting the 
color of blooms. Duchess has continued to be my best- 
selling variety. | 
HYBRID SEED-GROWN PLANTS are grown from gen- 
uinely hand-hybridized seed obtained from distinct 
varieties crossed to produce seed. Since no two seeds 
(even from the same cross and pod) will produce 
plants exactly alike, your purchase of one of these 
pane assures you of one that is different from any 
other. 
e PERIWINKLE is a new seedling — which originated 
among the hybrid plants described above. We're very 
pleased with it as a most outstanding light blue vari- 
ety with large blooms. } 
e ROSY-BLUE is known for.its free blooming qualities 
and for its habit of changing from deep maroon 
blooms to many shades of orchid as the flowers ma- 
ture. We recommend Rosy-Blue to those who have 
difficulty blooming their African Violets.
