REGAL WINE $3.50 
Double-flowering wine-maroon, pictured on page 5. 
I am proud to name and introduce Regal Wine, the 
new truly double wine-maroon African Violet, this 
Spring 1949. 
This is the variety that collectors have been waiting 
for! In our Fall 1948 Catalog our description of 
Duchess mentioned “Duchess is the first of a new type 
of African Violet...’ Regal Wine is a true aristocrat 
of the highest quality, and deserves a place alongside 
Duchess, as a true fancier’s variety. It is most depend- 
able and very choice. 
Regal Wine has all the fine habits of Duchess. Each 
wine-maroon flower has from 12-20 petals. The long 
lasting blossoms grow in clusters on long stems, held 
well above the foliage. Free-blooming and easy to grow. 
Plants offered for Spring delivery are subject to stock 
on hand. Orders will be filled in rotation. As our 
supply is limited on Regal Wine, we offer prompt 
refund if unable to fill your order—or may we hold 
your remittance till we are able to supply plants of 
our high quality, size and standard?
