Stateliness No. 46-3 (442) (Hatch-Gove). General MacArthur x Janice. Deep pink with 
darker blotches. Makes a wonderful show spike with its 12—14 open florets at a time and most 
all the rest showing color. It will grow 5 ft. tall with 30’ head 22-24 total buds. I had one spike 
last summer with 31 buds and 15 of them open in good condition. I don’t think there is anything 
in its class that can beat it on the show table. I have a photo of it on cover that was taken last 
year. Show fans should get in on this one. 
Price $2.00 for any size.
