GRACIOUS 
LAVENDER RUBRELES™ LAKE + LACID 
(About 70 days)...Sdlg, No. K-102. A very delicate self 
colored pastel lavender with excellent formal type. Just 
enough lavender to allow showing in the lavender class. 
Out of over 70 to bloom for us the past summer, three 
came almost white. We feel safe in saying that Gracious 
will be a fine commercial even tho an occasional one turns 
up nearly white. Strong attachment, strong straight stem, 
ideal placement, 5% inch, 8-9 open, 6 in color, 20 buds, 
28 inch head, 60 inches overall. Upright dark green foliage. 
While blooming in 70 days in 1948, we are sure that with 
more favorable weather it will bloom in 65 days or less. 
Ohio State (Solon) first in 1947. Tri-State first in 1948. 
While a very good propagator our stock is still small 
but we decided to introduce it this year hoping our sales 
will be small. Per each No. 6, $2.50; Blts, each .50.

tion. 6 inch floret, 26-28 buds, 34 inch flowerhead, 62 
inches overall. 12 open, we have had 14 open and think 
possibly it may do even better. Healthy straight dark 
green foliage, very good reproducer, blts of easy germina-
