&. * * * (400) (Clark-Moses, 1947) (85 days) (Picardy sport) 
Snow Flurry e ¢ ¢ One of the four best white (or cream) Picardy sports. 
(The others: Leading Lady, Silver Wings, and Eureka.) Of the four, Snow Flurry is un- 
doubtedly the whitest and probably also has the most style. Has the same beautiful suede 
texture as Silver Wings. A fine, tall grower. Florets have wonderful attachment, but may 
occasionally come misplaced. A very superior variety and one which you will undoubtedly 
want to try. CL 1-.35; 10-3.00) CM 1-.25; 10-2.00) (S 2-.25; 10-1.00) (Blbts. Pkg. .25) 
Snow Princess 4 * (400) (Pfitzer, 1939) (75 days) For many years 
¢ © Snow Princess has been the standard commercial 
white. Has been grown by the acre for cut-flowers. Tall and creamy in tone, it is a most 
reliable early cutter. (L 3-.25; 10-.70) (M 10-.40) (S 10-.25) (Blbts. Pkg. .20) 
Sparks xk * (596) (Glass, 1947) (95 days) (Seedling x Aladdin) Well- 
e ¢ ¢ * named! This giant creamy-yellow has a startling explosion- 
blotch effect of orange scarlet which suggests sparks shooting from a glowing coal. Tall 
and spectacular in the garden. A must-have for both the fancier and the commercial 
grower. One of the most distinctive varieties in our entire list. 
(L 1-.35; 10-2.80) (M 1-.25; 10-2.00) (S 2-.25; 10-1.00) (Blbts. 10-.25; 100-1.50) 
Spic and Span wx *& * *& «(432) (Carlson, 1946) (80 days) (Picardy x New 
e e e ¢ Era) No. 1 in popularity in the strong salmon- 
pink class, Spic and Span is one of the most spire-like of all glads, readily opening 8 to 10 
precisely-set round florets on tall, tapering spikes that are a joy to either the fancier or 
the commercial grower. A heavy prize-winner at the shows. This was such a dream of 
a cut-flower last summer that I remarked that I didn’t care whether I sold any bulbs of it
