MARGARET WOOD (Marshall) 570. A 
huge flowered deep mauve or mauve- 
purple of exceptional size and great 
beauty of color. For exhibition, it can 
win in the giant class, and for the home 
garden, it makes an unusual show gar- 
den. But I beileve its greatest value lies 
in the strikingly beautiful and unusual 
floral work it makes. L. 40c; M. 30c;

MINSTREL (44) 566. Mid-season. Huge 
lavender, sometimes flecked darker. 
This is the largest lavender in exist- 
ence. It has a long head but under ad- 
verse conditions the stem is not too 
long. But when well grown it is won- 
derfully fine. It is a simply gorgeous 
variety that everyone should grow. Will 
not be so popular as a cut flower as 
Elizabeth the Queen and yet it is one 
that the public would like if the flor- 
ists would stock it. It is so large and 
striking that I know of no other laven- 
der that can compare with it for 
showiness. A good variety for breeding.

mand. L. 20c; M. 15c; S. 10c.
