SILVERSMITH (Yoder) 
Large, very pure white decorative, immediately following 
Cameo. Strong, free growth with no tendency toward 
blindness. Responds with Goldsmith and Omega in the 
winter flowering program from December through 
March. 
BETTER 
SNOWCREST (De Petris) 
An intermediate solid white Pompon with a green im- 
mature center, full rounded form and excellent substance. 
Matures December 10-15 making it useful for a much 
desired white Pompon at that season. A good keeper 
and quite productive. 
BOURBON (Yoder) 
Intermediate rust bronze single. Very good form and 
substance. Flowers about the same time as Carnelia. 
Better growth habit and more productive than Carnelia, 
for December through March, flowering with Goldsmith, 
Cameo and Omega. 
FESTIVAL (Yoder) 
Small red single for Thanksgiving. Also now being 
flowered from December through March. The earliest 
of a group of outstanding red singles in which the growth 
habit and production is greatly improved over that of 
varieties listed in the past. 
GALAXY (Yoder) 
Intermediate bronze single. Same season as Viking and 
Cavalcade with an improved growth habit. Useful shade 
of bronze when lighted for the winter program. 
HOLIDAY (Yoder) 
Intermediate wide petaled red single flowering for Chris- 
mas. Freer growth habit than Sarong, and therefore 
better suited for winter flowering. 
MERRY MAKER (Yoder) 
Crimson red single for the holiday season and for flower- 
ing through January, February and March. A larger 
and a better flower form than Christmas Star. 
BALLERINA (Yoder) 
Intermediate pink single. Early cloth house variety and 
similiar in shading response to the California Daisies. 
Better form and color than October Pink, and has a more 
upright growth habit. Best with some disbudding. Ex- 
cellent for June flowering.
